^ I don't think he is worried about hijacked thread.

He has a hot gal and a hot car in his thread.
Good luck on yours in other area. Kind of a dead zone there and have been looking elsewhere for bits to work with.

Carry on fellers .

I think he is talking about Melissa's picture in my thread earlier. The only other hot gal is the wife. Definitely don't worry about hijacking, it is all good.

Bad news first - slight reverb when base is played through the door speaker; Bose surround sound is only fair; you need a computer programming degree to get the seats adjusted and set into the "key" memory. The manual is probably better in German. Lots of buffeting, even at low speeds, with the sunroof fully open - need to crack a window.

Good news - rides comfortable in normal mode and sound is great, even without PSE (well good enough for me anyway). Lacks a bit in low end torque. But , I have a Mustang with 4:10 gear ratio so what I am used to is not really a fair comparison. Also, I have not put it into sport or sport plus which will make that better, nor have I really stepped on it so I keep the revs low.

Great news - interior fit and finish is better than my 997.2 (IMO). Ride is quiter. gets lots of looks and nods, even without seeing the interior. I could stare at its back end all day (Sid, unless it is a winter driving thing, I seriously question need for C4S - and given the fact that parts are being shared more across platforms suggesting standardization, and all the statements that were made about widening the front so it is closer to the width of the back, how sure are you the C4 will be a wide body - you should get what you want, but I am just saying). 4200 rpm has not been that big a limit for every day - I was doing 80 in 7th at just over 2000 rpm.
PDK is great so far.

That is about it until I start pushing it in a few hundred miles. It will be in shop for a clear bra this weekend and on the 16 th it goes in for oil, clear turn signals, fix the speaker and the f@&$ing ding in the f@&$ind driver's side door.

So far, best car I have ever owned.

don't like that buffeting comment- i thought with that new pop up wind screen, it would have fixed it.

missed the door ding in the thread - ouch.

Congrats on your build!

All,
If you have any questions about my build, or the new opitions on the configuration software, Tom here is the guy to ask! I have bought two 911's from him and would buy another, (not soon - I have had mine for less than a week) but there would not be enough left of me after the wife found out to ever drive it!
