Just got a new 2024 911 Carrera 4S (Aventurine Green with Brown interior). Patiently trying to go thru the break-in process (1,850 miles). Then looking forward to some spirited driving!

Hello MikeP! Welcome aboard! Break-in can be agonizing I know, but it's worth it in the long run! Post some pictures of the car if you are so inclined, including the brown interior! Is it the truffle brown? Nearly went with that on my white 992, but chickened out at the last minute and went with black.

Mike P,
I am at 1777 miles towards my 2000 mile Cayman GTS break in period, but tomorrow my wife and I leave for a drive down to Topeka, Kansas easily crossing that 2K barrier. Wednesday AM I take the GTS over to multiple time SCCA National Champion Jesse Prathers's shop for him to do a Dyno run for my NASA TT qualification. Enjoy your break in and the Aventurine Green was my second color choice and with the brown interior yours has to be stunning --- I am echoing 71eh, we need to see some pics!

Hi Mike! I second the big welcome to Carpokes! I'm a bit up the road from you in Tennessee - Spring and Summer (and Fall & Winter) driving season is ̶s̶o̶o̶n̶ always here. Yay!

Your C4S - gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous! The interior is beautiful too - I have Truffle Brown in our 992 and can attest to its awesomeness! (Just a little bias on my part. Haha.) Thnaks for joining the Merry Band here and for posting the pics!
