I'm torn on what trim to option. I originally chose the summerwood because it seemed like a safe option, but I saw it in person today (in a car with chalk interior) and it feels cheap and plastic-y. I assume the oak silver metallic or the brushed aluminum will feel higher quality, but I can't...
Today I got pictures of 2 neutral colored themes, one black and one more of a gray. Based on this, I don't think you need to worry about downgrading the software.
PanameraFrank - I just saw you're in Seattle (I'm in Bellevue). Where did you do the test drive? My SA at Porsche Bellevue said they wouldn't be available to test drive until closer to the end of the month, but I'm not a very patient guy.
Did you only get to drive the 4? Reading between the lines of your post, it sounds like you're saying the 4S or Turbo might be great cars because the handling and interior will carry over, but the 4 is too slow. Is that right?
I have a 4S on order, which I very much hope won't feel glacially slow.
