They put that there (the black plastic) because without it you wouldn't be able to roll down the window. They put the mirrors there to be more aerodynamic.

Through the coasting video, did you find that the REAR designation of the blue car is "Carrera S"? Why did Porsche just officially announce the OPTION of "911" or "911 Carrera S" at the rear?

They never announced any options besides PDCC and PDK really. It wasn't until we got the configurator that we knew any news on really any options at all (besides from the catalog which wasn't very visual). And I see in the video how it says "Carrera S", and in reality, you can only have "911 Carrera S", or "911".

If you ask me, I think the cars in the start stop/promo videos are prototypes, and aren't identical to the production cars. After all, the videos were taken much earlier in the year.

Those are compiled clips from the web special where you can pick all the turns you want in effect "virtually driving" a 911 S. That's why there's so many repeats and loops.
