Lol -- I admit I have been distracted with things. I will get some pics for you as soon as I can -- I am sorry for the delay.
As for the new car -- I think its great. It has been an adjustment though. I drove my 986 for many years, and I loved that car. I would not have given it up for anything. Unfortunately, it died and I had to get something to get around in. The 718 is the closest I could come in a new car, so that's what I ended up with.
The engine is growly. But I am getting used to it, and in a good way. The more I drive it, the more I like it. My old car was a 2002 S and it had, I think, 250 hp. This one has 350 hp. It is a real difference. The car performs impeccably. There really isn't much more to be said on that front.
The big change for me is that I got the pdk. This was a long time issue with my wife, who was never comfortable driving the old box with the manual transmission. I was a real believer in manual transmissions. I must say, it is really hard to complain about the pdk. If you want, you can shift it like a manual, but without the inefficiency of actually using a clutch. And the shifts are not like the old triptronic. The pdk shifts are quick and sure. For those that think you are not as involved, I'm not sure I agree. With the pdk, you can be involved in the sense of picking any shift pattern you want (like any manual). Sure, you will not have any miss-shifts, even when you are driving very hard, but I am coming around to the view that that is a positive. ;-) Bottom line is that the pdk is very nice. Plus, if you are stuck in traffic, you don't have to pick a shift pattern at all. ;-)
The car is also new, which is nice in many ways. The body is tight and clean. The electronics are amazing. I have lane sensors, a back-up camera, headlights that point towards where you are steering, and a radio that works seamlessly with my phone. My seats have heating and cooling, whichever you want. When you are stopped at a light, you can press the brake down and engage "hold", which holds the car until you press the accelerator. Amazingly simple, and something that I am already completely used to. When I drive other cars, I am now annoyed that they don't do that and you have to sit at the stop holding down the break! Lol.
I have ~3k miles on it and I love it more every time I drive it.
But I still miss my old one. I really loved that old car.
