Arrow 991 cabrio roof construction a big mess??

I came across this video. Watch the folding of the roof and the wrinkles during folding and after folding.
horrible :-/ I hope this a pre-series construction, because it looks kinda nasty how this roof is just dumped into the back.
What you say?

Jules944 is an unknown quantity at this point
I guess he is just concerned that the roof will look pretty wrinkled (aka Sylvester Stallone look) after some foldings.

Its simple. When the car is parked, put the top up. It'll straighten out any wrinkles.

I'm actually hilarious in real life. Now just keep the top up when the car is parked and you won't have to cry yourself to sleep.

Well Porsche does like to put there names on weird things...porsche design blackberrys, bob sleighs (PORSCHE DESIGN BOBSLEIGHS, hard drives (LaCie Porsche Hard Drives: Speedy and Sporty, Just Like Their Cars - Technabob, and buildings (Porsche Design Group to Build Tower in Miami, All-Glass Car Elevators Included in the Price - UnBeige. Wouldn't surprise me about an Iron in the shape of a 911.
