My new 991 C4S

Picked up this Basalt Black C4S in PDK (PSE, no Sport Plus/Chrono). Came from an Audi A7 and the difference is substantial. Simply amazing. I am completely sold on Porsche. Attached are some pics. Would note that that there are two coats of Blackfire Wet Diamond and a fresh coat of Blackfire Blackice Carnuba. Only issues are:

1. Need some paint correction from light superficial scratches when I picked it up from the dealer.

2. For the factory clearbra on the side of the car - there appears to be three or four tiny bubbles. A bit annoying, but I'm sure I won't notice in a month.

3. There is a button by the garage button by the rear-view mirror. Is this a side-mirror heater? Cannot figure out for the life of me what it does.

4. No idea what the "dazzle" button does.

Thanks for all the useful info and great posts on the forum. I am a Porsche lifer now!

Congrats !! Beautiful car!!

There are 3 programmable (homelink) buttons, one is for door light activation / deactivation and the " P-off " button is for park assist on/off. Does it help?

By the way, love the mat underneath the car...is it to protect painted floor? Nicely done!!

Thanks - got the mat at Costco. I needed it because I just epoxyed my floor so am still waiting for it to fully cure, and didn't want any hot tires lifting up the epoxy.

Love the car! Absolutely amazing stance on the 4S.

Do you have spacers/S-PASM? It looks mighty beefy!

When you describe it, don't leave out the Sport Techno wheels!
How long are you letting the epoxy cure? The guys who installed mine said 48 hours was plenty of time. I waited 72 and brought the car/truck in with cold tires. My floor seems fine.
It's been 3 weeks now...
