Tried to fixed some rattle in the door. I identified it but failed (don’t wanna use glue and nor open the whole door card yet). Also cleaned some of the leather trims.

That being said I saw this dent in my door and I wonder what might have caused it (I am far from the original owner).

Hard to tell the location from the photo but could it be the latch plate from the seat belt getting caught while losing the door?

Didn’t think of that… most probably true. The rattle from the door is coming from the plastic trim at the top that “welcome” the bump from the door frame.

Two design styles side by side blocky vs smooth lines. How do you like the new M2? I haven't got used to that front bumper yet, the previous model was perfection for me.

@smrpr Im not a big fan of the blocky front-end. The look from the side or rear is pretty. Much prefer the lines of the 997.

It does have a fantastic drivetrain and the interior and tech is really nice in the car, plus a simple app installed on your phone and you can change a ton of drive options/interior options.

Its nice and very quick out of the box, but not something I want. Id much rather throw 70K at an older 911 than a new BMW, slower, older tech but I feel, a better, more organic driving experience.
