B8 has been traded in. I loved it. The interior quality was great. The power was great. But I had an itch for something new.

So far, the Porsche is great. A bit stiffer than the B8 but not in a bad way. The seats are more comfortable and the air suspension is a great upgrade over the static suspension in the B8.

I'm in love with the color. I'm happy to not have settled for another gray or white like 90% of my previous vehicles. Here are some quick pics.

Congrats! The small changes they have made goes an extremely long way. I saw one last month in Spain in a shimmering dark green color. Love at first sight! Enjoy!

Great color....enjoy it. Buick and Chevy just adopted a bright, more or less-similar blue for some versions of the new 2025 Encore GX and Trailblazer.

Thank you. It's called Lugano Blue. But tbh, I cannot tell the difference between this and Shark Blue.

I'll post it for you. It's just a tad lighter than the Porsche, but still a very bright blue.

Thank you. It comes up over 50 or 55 MPH I believe. You can do it manually as well.
