Re: Black Instrument Dials
Yeah..., my guess is there's not enough orders for black dials so they don't offer them on TT. Reason: because unlike Carrera and Carrera S, which are interchangeable, the TT tachometer has different specs.
BTW? Why no colored wheel caps for TT? My guess is the TT wheels are polished and clear-coated. Carrera and Carrera S are _painted_ and clearcoated. Maybe it's hard to "color" _polished_ alloy and keep it in the background and not enough quantities to make it profitable, blah, blah, blah... .
DARN IT! I kinda miss those colored wheel caps! Just a little speck of color, like a gemstone: was niiiiice.

If you reeeeeeally wanted the dials to match you could _probably_ find an outfit on the net which will copy change and fabricate a dial for you in the color you choose. Not a big deal (moneywise) anymore with CAD digital tech.
Who knows? Maybe they will remove and replace too... .
BTW, I know for a "fact" (service guy confidently, not BS'edly, told me) SC wart pops straight up and off (pry it up on both sides with tape-protected tools). You can take it out of bezel, wrap in bubble wrap, stuff in dash and get a leather cover/flap made to cover hole...
Re: Sport Chrono Remove/Change Options
Is the Sport Chrono option better suited for a Tip vs. a Manual tranny? In my 996TT M6, I don't spend much time in the lower RPM range. However, one doesn't have much choice in a Tip right? Additionally, I'm not into tracking or changing the suspension...
While I'm ready to upgrade into a 997TT (even though I hate the idea of selling my baby), I can't decide on what major options to select. Most importantly, Tip vs. Man. and the PCCB brakes. This forum is helping me out alot. Thanks.

SC is the most important option in the Turbo. It comes before everything else.

Yes, it's "unprecedented" (
) in automotive marketing history: Porsche says, "We'll sell you this amazingly-ballsy car, but be sure to spend RIDICULOUSLY LITTLE MONEY and order the _optional_ SC or else you'll get a "de-tuned" TT.
