Beautiful. You happen to have kitted it out just the way I would... 19" Carrara Classics, silver on full black leather. Sport exhaust by any chance? That would also make my wish list.
After the 991 has been out for a bit I'll be looking for one just like that. In the meantime I very happily bide my time with a more affordable alternative...

Or the problem was denial. I drove my C6 90k miles and from start to finish it had some sort of creak or rattle here and there.

My 02 Z06 didn't rattle or squeak. My Cayman S does have a squeak but I'm pretty sure I know what it is and that it can be fixed.
Beautiful car OP.

I had 99 and 03 corvettes and they both were rattle boxes, albeit the 99 rattled more because its lacked the solid roof.
In my opinion the rattles had nothing to do with the weatherstripping. I honestly don't know where they came from. All I know is that the rattles showed in both cars within a couple weeks of driving and got worse and stayed about the same.
