Nice list.

Great looking car. Looks almost exactly like mine and right at home on Angeles Crest Highway.

Time to order up some clear side markers

Someone had to say it

(If I recall, when I first posted a pic of my car after getting it, someone responded by saying "clear corners, stat!"

Infotainment? Your car is seven years old, with technology from five years before that. Y2Knolowgy?
With 1080 mm of tire traction, no Bluetooth is going to work well. It's just too thumpy. Best is a wire earpiece to you phone.
Exactly. I've had bluetooth on both my 997.2's and found it mostly useless unless the car is parked.

Nice car and welcome. If it's any consolation, infotainment on my first 911 was trying to toggle the heat switches on the floorboard to get half a visible windshield. : )

Funny! I was looking at another car, private sale - very similar specs, a year older, slightly fewer miles - and it had the clear side markets. The owner was very proud of those clear lenses
