997TT is here **Pics** inside

My 6 month wait is finally over! Flew out to Cleveland last week to pick it up and drove home. The ride home was a blast and took about 10 hours. Instead of taking the Interstate I took Rte. 6 just about all the way home. Rte. 6 runs along the northern part of PA and is considered one of the 10 most scenic roads in America. It's basically a two lane highway that goes thru some quaint old towns and great country side scenery.

Not much traffic to deal with but I did get stuck behind someone every now and then, although there were opportunities to pass

Were you able to buff-out my "Rock" signature on the hood. Sorry, but envy overwhelmed me when I saw that thing.

Congrats and safe motoring.

It's a good thing that it says, "Turbo," on the inside between the seats. Just in case you forget you can look down and go, "Oh yeah, turbo."

What a beautiful car! Probably the nicest rims I've ever seen on a Porsche. I'm very envious!

Does it have LSD?! Of course it has LSD LOL. Actually White was my first choice but saw a thread on rennlist that several people posted who had some "yellowing" on some of the non-metal surfaces i.e. bumper etc. I would have flipped if that happened to my car. I had seen both slate and white in person and liked slate better. It's very tough to photograph

Perfectly specced.


Two questions.

1. Is it tip or stick?
2. Did you get the sport chrono pkg with overboost?

Congrats again

Here I am trying to fight off the urge to switch back into a 911 and you post this! Thankfully the dealer is closed for the evening!

That's a beautiful car, I hope it treats you well.
