    Awesome! Pics and review for rennteam following break-in, of course, is mandatory.

    Re: Its built.....

    launch car?

    Re: Its built.....

    grats mine will be in july/aug

    Re: Its built.....

    I envy you all, as I am only 19 and cannot yet afford a car of that caliber. Every time I drive a porsche I say to myself, "someday." I hope that day isn't too far away and I can share the joy of owning stuttgarts finest with all of you.

    Re: Its built.....

    Yes, a launch car. spec'ed out on Jan. 25th with minimum info. Added axle-diff. lock later. Sport-chrono was near-not ordered. Rush rush. Learned of Rennteam website only after specing. It would have been extremely helpful had I but known. Got on list early 2004.

    Strong work on the Sport Chrono!

    I wonder how many will be ordered without? As RC has pointed out, it's not only the extra boost, but also the throttle response and suspension settings change. I would suggest that when Porsche releases the 997TTS that they make the Sport Chrono standard with a delete option, and when included that it be set up like PSM on the 996TT. The sport chrono setting should be active ON automatically with a button to press only to turn it OFF.

    hey,

    good to have you here.
    you do not have to start with a turbo. look at a used 911 from the mid 80's. its one of the best looking porsches ever made and very affordable now. they are very sturdy cars that run and run and run and require very little maintenance. look for one from a dry climate area and you will have years of happy driving till you can afford admission to the king of 911's.

    Thanks for the support and advice. I realize that I may have given you a hard time over the tip vs. manual discussion in the turbo forum. I am sorry for this, hope I didn't offend you.

    Re: Its built.....

    hey trip,

    no hard feelings at all on my side. its always good to have discussions, thats why we are here in the first place.
