Beautiful Car!

I, for one, love yellow Porsches (and Ferraris/Lambos). Wish I had one!

Lighten up people! Life is too ridiculous to take it that seriously. My point was only that enjoyment of an awesome sports car (like the Turbo) which you use for your daily driver is a little difficult if your wife or significant other hates it.

996tt..nice

i came sooo close to getting a speed yellow 993tt, but opted to keep my convert and get the c32.....as a car crazy guy i will always 2nd guess the decision....oh well i'll keep playing the lotto....

pierre check out fabspeed.com check out the vid of the tt with the sport exhaust....you can hear the turbo spinning through the open exhaust.....it's amazing. my departed modified 3000gt did the same.

good luck tinkering with it....post the goings on here as well as the porche forums....:-)

The ones that move me
Nice choice. The E55 would have been an good choice as well, but you would have always though "I should have got the Porsche". Yellow... can you say "hello officer".

THANKS!

The handling of the Turbo is simply amazing...how easy easy esay is to take corners at high speed ...the is no way that my C32 will my much that. My only "mod" will just be a chip with H&S for $2,000 and I will get 480hp & 480lb-ft on 3,500 lb, 4wd, 6-speed car getting 0-100 in low or mid 8sg.

How is the turbo lag on a Porsche? I know the audi RS4 has a terrible hole.

bverotti honestly, after my fisrt test drive I can tell you that the 911 Turbo has minimal turbo lag. I have had Turbo cars in the past and I must say that the 996 TT is like a nomaly aspirate 996 until 3,000 rpms. I beleive that the reason is that the Posche has a 3.6 engine vs. 2.7 L + the RS4 is 250 lb heavier with almost the same engine compression + how the Boxer vs. V6 delivers power and torque.

bverotti lastly, you know that I love the C32 but go and test drive a 911 Turbo.
