The textured paint below the doors on the rocker panels is not orange peel, it is a special plasticized paint Porsche uses to resist chipping. My '81 911 had it too.
Like most US cars, mine is Finland assembled, and I have seen virtually no orange peel on the exterior body panels. Inside the trunks, under the top cover, etc., is another story, as the paint is quite thin in places, evidence of a less thorough painting procedure than was the case on the old 911s. New 911s I have seen don't seem to be any better than the Boxsters as far as the paint goes. Orange peel not uncommon on the metallics, less so on the non-metallics.
