New Launch PDK C4S, Sport Buckets, finally!
What an awesome car. 35 miles on the odo. Thanks all for the help! Pics to follow. Seats are the BEST! Trouble with posting tonight, so this is short...my 6th attempt?!

I just imported a new (to me) C4S Launch as well. Haven't got all the inspections done yet but should have it on the road by Monday. Have spent alot of "quality time" in the garage test sitting. Seats feel good for my shape but it will be interesting to see what they're like on the back over a long day.
Tim give me a call and come over for a test sit anytime

hope this one works...
Now the questions...1 is the sport chrono timer illuminated?...2 with the shild liner installed the frunk lid requires extra umph to push down to lock...were does one push...emblem and hood metal nearby?...3 the sunroof panel does not sit flush...leading edge is flush for the most part but the trailing edge extends up minimally but noticeably....looks aside I'm concerned for leaks etc...
Has turbo wheels and 5mm spacers...with Meteor Grey mettalic, it looks to mean business though sorta understated. Bypassers look in through the windowwhen parked ( me included) and see those seats and its all over...The color works well with its curves. Looking at this car is half the fun...driving it completes the circle. I highly recommend the seats for comfort and officialness...Because of the seats, the slight increase in contortions to enter and exit validates an already laughable exercise. Heres one last question...where does one place their left hand while
exiting?

Congrats Mambodoc on your new purchase. Great color, and turbo wheels/5mm spacers = Good contrast! Just a few answers to your questions; 1) Sport chrono gauge illuminates only when the chrono is activated, and not resetted, 2) I close the aluminum hood by pushing on the Porsche logo. For us old guys, to get in and out of the Porsche requires flexibility, but I find when exiting the Porsche without kicking and scratching the cheap plastic rocker sill, I place my left hand on the painted area just behind the "Carrera S" door sill, and to give myself a little push up while exiting. That is my take and that works for me....How about the rest of you Rennlisters, how do you exit the Porsche? Enjoy!

Sport chrono timer is illuminated only when you use it, I thought it was odd too.
I thought I read push on the emblem?
No difference with the Shild liner to me either.
I see ruf911 beat to me to it, but +1 on being flexible. I was taught plant your butt and pivot.
