    Re: OFFICIAL: 991 Turbo/Turbo S Cabriolet (2013)

    on the last pic ... which one you think is faster ? 


    Re: OFFICIAL: 991 Turbo/Turbo S Cabriolet (2013)

    0-60mph the TTS. After that the F14....if on an aircraft carrier with catapult launch the F14 all the way...

    Re: OFFICIAL: 991 Turbo/Turbo S Cabriolet (2013)

    it was a joke anyway ..... but i think the car would be faster if the f14 still on the ground which i think  around 0-100Mile

    My TTS Cab was born today indecision Now I have to wait for it being shipped to me....ETA 28th March. Hopefully the bad weather will be gone by then!

    White + Brown Top + Expresso 

    I am considering ordering a GT3 FL now to complement the TTS....the GT3 would be my weekend event car....a very different beast.

    How did you get your TTS so fast? Airship it?


    Re: OFFICIAL: 991 Turbo/Turbo S Cabriolet (2013)

    Nope regular delivery. It was built on Feb 7th and on the boat on the 8th - I was surprised! It was at my dealer about 24hrs before I took delivery. Now its sitting in my garage (after 355miles of driving) until at least Thursday/Friday due to 8-10inch of snow starting this evening and snow again on Wednesday. When will this snow stop!! I think this will be the 38th snow fall of the season...

    Re: OFFICIAL: 991 Turbo/Turbo S Cabriolet (2013)

    Ny Gt3 was built on Jan.28th and the boat is expected to arrive in San Diego on March 6th. Go figure.yes

    Given the problems with the GT3 I may not get it until some time this summer.


    Re: OFFICIAL: 991 Turbo/Turbo S Cabriolet (2013)

    NJ Port is a bit closer than San Diego but hopefully no delayed with the Panama canal!

    Good luck with the GT3. I know you have been waiting many months for yours. I feel for you GT3 owners right now - v painful!

    The snow wasn't as bad as forecasted and no snow tomorrow. Hopefully that is the last of snow for this year!!! But at least all the potholes give me something to test the handling with ....

    488miles and counting indecision This car requires you to re-calibate due to the acceleration even on part throttle compared to other traffic which seem to just stop moving....

    Re: OFFICIAL: 991 Turbo/Turbo S Cabriolet (2013)

    I actually got used to the power of the 991 Turbo S but this actually makes the car quite dangerous because I needed to adapt differently to braking and handling compared to my other cars. Not always easy, I don't want to loose my driver's license. angry

    Re: OFFICIAL: 991 Turbo/Turbo S Cabriolet (2013)

    1200miles on mine so far.  I ran it in as gentle as I could. Given how fast the TTS is in the 0-100mph range I cannot imagine driving a P1 or 918 on the street. While I am sure the TTS looses some of the sharpness of the GT3 it just feels so solid moving down the road and yet so agile in its handling. The power/traction makes you feel like you are constantly being shot out of a cannon. And the sound well you either love it or hate it. I love it. It adds to the experience and nature of the car while not upsetting my neighbors. I love my TTS!

    Re: OFFICIAL: 991 Turbo/Turbo S Cabriolet (2013)

    Too elegant in my opinion. I also still can't get used to the Turbo S rims. As soon as I need new tires, the rims will be painted in matte black.

    Well, the swiss list price is (as usual) pretty high. Anyone who is in the market must know they are going to lose their shirt on resale. If I was in the market for one, I'd be looking for a deep discount as well.

    Also, this is a "free" car dealer, not an official Porsche dealer. Who knows why he sells this car that cheap?! Sometimes they advertise the price tag but when you want to see the car, they have to order it first because the one advertised has been sold already. Smiley This is an old trick to attract customers.

    German Porsche dealers usually give 3-7% on a Turbo (which is quite OK considering the 11-12% for Carrera models) and if you are a good customer, up to 9% should be possible. Everything above it depends on how badly the dealer wants the deal and everything above 11% is impossible (unless the dealer has a car in stock he wants to get rid off, for example if a customer ordered one and didn't pay or whatever).

    Not in my town but 30 km to west where CR lives there is even a better offer from an official dealer - 2 month old and more than 20% - previous owner switched to Ferrari. Car is in show room.

    I suspect a marked difference between a discounted new car and a soiled one is common everywhere.

    What setting are you guys using for your Burmester? I am not an audiophile nut but I like my music very crisp and somewhat robust. I am sure it will take my Burmester sometime to settle but I not completely happy with it yet. I use mainly HD Radio, XM and Buetooth streaming from my iPhone.

    Another proof that GTR can goes 0-100 in under 3sec., only falling vertically... smiley


    Re: OFFICIAL: 991 Turbo/Turbo S Cabriolet (2013)

    Amazing how competition makes everyone better - thankfully! The GTR was king (stats wise) only a few years ago. Now it's far from king. Just imagine if Porsche didn't hold back!
