Default sun visors

Why doesn't the 911 have the type of visor, that extends on a rod?? It should also have a double setup, so one can cover the window and the other the windshield.
My Benzes have the double and extension, so it is sorely missed in my 911.

Porsche never did go for a visor like that. It's just bare bones driving with a 911!

I've had Yukons and Infiniti and Honda's with that function...and others. Sometimes, ya gotta jack that seat upward a little, or maybe move the head sideways, and then just keep rockin' on with the beautifully performing machine....

Let me know when you go back to the Mercedes for the "with" or "without" trick visors. LOL

Porsche drivers are known to be "cool" so they always wear large dark sunglasses and don't need those lesser creature comforts.

I do wear sunglasses! haha
Maybe a light tint will help, my 550 has a 35% tint and I drive that almost 100% of the time as my DD. The 550 w/ tint, "elaborate" visors and my sunglasses, keeps out the light like an old person that wears big sunglasses for eye issues!

Exactly.
