- 991 Turbo S. Spyder and CT4S on the way

- #1
After 9 months from the order, six months from the stop sale, and three months from the stop-delivery, I finally received the 2022 CT4S in Mamba Green.
So far, in the first hundred miles or so it received
-35% tint
-home-made lowering links
-wheel cladding removal
-PPF
-Will's rear car rack
-Signature SV706 in triple black tint-coat.
A few notes...
-The performance package handles considerably better than the 4S sedan that I was given as a long term loaner while waiting for the car. Much flatter in the corners and much less need for Sport or Sport Plus "chassis" settings.
- The full leather interior is really worth (my) money. It's noticeably nicer than the base setting.
- I'm an 18-way-shaped person and the loaner was a 14-way. It's nice to be back in the 18-ways.
- PCM 19.whatever that was given as part of the uPdate/recall is nice, has very little lag, and has only once glitched.
- the paint is good, required very little correction, and seems to be perfect with Ammo's Reflex Pro home-applied ceramic coating.
- I need to work out the leather cleaner that Porsche uses for that flat finish. Any leather cleaner I have leaves a slight gloss that is incredibly annoying.
- The Signature SV706 are incredibly light (25lbs for the rear) and to me, incredibly beautiful. I just hope they stand up to Portland roads!!! I regret ordering the Porsche blade-style 21" wheels with the car. They'll be for sale soon.
Annoyances-
- there's a light whistle from the front of the car (windshield?) above 30mph. It stops when I tuck behind a truck. It's not supposed to do that and the sedan loaner didn't. I'll ask the dealer to look at it, but I have to at least play podcasts or music for now.
- There's more tire noise than I'd like given that I ordered the double-glass. I guess additional noise insulation is not included. I understand it is difficult to make a performance 305/265mm tireset quiet and still perform and have good range... but what's that Porsche says about compromise?
