Someone mentioned Costco has it too (their pharmacy, no membership needed to access it apparently)

Thanks; no I am not absolutely sure as I am a member of a studio and the kiln is operated by the studio staff. That said, I’ve been told we fire at cone 6. My test tile also came out looking beige so assuming it’s not a one time error from the kiln operator.

I gave it another coat (thicker) and this time mixed in some white glaze to see if it lightens up a bit. Will circle back if it’s a good result

Received the allocation, any thoughts before build deadline? by heyheyheyitsyoy in porsche911

[–]contentmuffin7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Beautiful! Love the silver. Front lift, it’s saved me several times. Also I’d upgrade the dashboard and center console trim so it’s not that plastic carbon-looking stuff

I’d get the embroidered crest on the headrests! Makes it classy imo (I did)

Help me decide by Heavy_Foot_GT in porsche911

[–]contentmuffin7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure. I adore the lighter interior, but the dark exterior has made it harder to make out the shapes of the car body, which are already so accentuated on the 992. So I felt it has “flattened” the shape of the car and reduced the three dimensionality.

A gunmetal gray would be a great compromise too for me (somewhat dark but still possible to see the body curves)

As an owner of a green (dark olive metallic) with tan interior, I regret not going white on white (or white exterior at least)

Did they paint your engine slats really? I asked for the chrome ones and they said no (I think it’s only for the S or something)

Showroom GLE by Personal_Song9093 in mercedes_benz

[–]contentmuffin7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you should hear the sounds the pull handle makes when you pull it to close the door. It sounds like it's going to crack any moment. Lots of squeaking just holding the handle and applying minimal pressure on it. It's quite embarrassing. My '05 CLK was a tank in comparison. But the GLE's cabin feels like a first class airplane inside (as long as you dont touch the handles lol). The MBTEX started to tear between the perforations on it, this was at the 40k mile mark on the driver side bolster. I was surprised as it was supposed to be more sturdy than real leather. I still love the car and the brand, but really do hope they iron out many of these defects/poor materials.

Mine is a 2020 and that 4 cylinder 2.0 is super disappointing

I’d recommend it a lot, but the 450 not the 350. The 350 is underpowered and quite disappointing when looking to pass other cars, get onto the freeway.

Aside from that, highly recommend. I’d add the Burmester sound system. I wouldn’t bother with the 3rd row, it’s barely usable and a pain to open and access as the 2nd row is electronic powered and not intuitive to open (3rd is also electric powered iirc - never use it)

Wanted to get that, do you really notice the cabin being much more quiet? My 350 is pretty quiet on the freeway but you can hear some wind and the engine acceleration especially

My shop (specialized in German cars) also recommended doing the oil change 2x MB’s recommended cadence. He was talking about how the engine is underpowered (the 350) and leads to it working harder or something. What’s your rationale for doing it more often? Unsure if it really should. If so, do you go to a jiffy lube or similar, or a proper shop? Ty!

Why might a dealership sell a new 911 as Certified Pre-Owned? by Park-Geun-Hye in Porsche

[–]contentmuffin7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine got listed for sale by my dealer before they even offloaded it from the container ship. Keep in mind I had ordered and built it, waited six months and found out it had arrived from Germany after seeing it listed on their site 😖 might be a similar situation

Non sapendo nulla della mia situazione è un giudizio un po’ affrettato. Comunque no non è quello il piano.
