Pics of my 997TT at the dealer - looks what's parked next to it

My 6 month wait is almost over. Car was delivered to dealer on Sat. and salesguy just took a few basic shots. Fly out to Cleveland tomorrow and will drive it home on Thurs.

maybe i'll buy both, as well as the Maybach to pull the 2 car trailer LOL!!

Chris buddy,

Congrats!!!!! I know you have been waiting for that baby for awhile. Did you finally convince your wife that it cost no more than a Honda.

Enjoy.

Thanks guys! Even though i'm no longer in this "club" I still visit here every day.

ProV1, yes I traded the 997S. Dealer is Porsche of North Olmsted (cleveland). They could not have been better to deal with - especailly with me. I must have sent the guy a million e-mails and phone calls.

The sales guy will be picking me up at the airport, taking me out to dinner and putting me up at the Ritz Carlton on their dime. He will then pick me up at the hotel Thurs. morning and drive me to the dealership to hand it over.

You could wait one night not to put your foot on the gas pedal??? Why didn't you fly early in the morning (or take a red-eye tonight), go straight to the dealer and give the hotel and dining expenses for some future cosmetic mods?

Awesome car anyway.... enjoy it in good health.

BTW, don't get maybach... get the G55 on the right to tow both cars (the middle and the left ).

You are going to Lorain Rd in North Olmsted. I may have to take a one minute drive to check out the new ride. I promise I won't key it.

Welcome to Cleveland, Chris. The Ritz is the best hotel in downtown. Good for you. If you get a choice of where to eat, tell them to take you to Morton's. (A few steps away). The Century Restaurant is in the Ritz and also very good. Make sure to order some good french wine if they are covering the tab. A Petrus or Château Lafite should work fine.


I stopped by the dealership after work but they were closed. They pulled your car inside to prep it. I could see it in the service bays.

I took a picture of your destination. Good luck. PM me if you need anything.

BTW..... check out the yellow Lambo in the show room.

Now that is service good enough for me to justify the purchase.
Major envy going on here man.
