    Re: Picked up my Turbo Cab!

    fantastic car!!!!!!!!

    Re: Picked up my Turbo Cab!

    Perfect combination! Congrats

    Re: Picked up my Turbo Cab!

    do you have deviating stitching in grey or is it the standard with black leather, couldn't find this on your list, but it doesn't look black?

    How is the tubi - some resonance?

    How do you like the 997TT compared to the F430?

    Re: Picked up my Turbo Cab!

    Thx for posting them again Stradale! As I said before ... awesome car man!

    Re: Picked up my Turbo Cab!

    WOW. Reminds me of the Turbo S Cab I ordered back in 2005. Too bad the thing showed up so butchered by Porsche's disorganized option system that I had to refuse delivery. (I am still bitter haha ).

    Great pics, amazingly speced car.

    Love the F430

    Driving weather is basically here now... crisp 50-60 *F are perfect for the engine

    Re: Picked up my Turbo Cab!

    Black is a really hot color on a Porsche!

    Re: Picked up my Turbo Cab!

    Hi,

    congratulations on the new car.

    It looks fantastic, enjoy the experience.

    Rgds.

    Re: Picked up my Turbo Cab!

    you should paint the seat backs.

    Why? He got them in leather which I think looks much more elegant than painted seatbacks.

    Re: Picked up my Turbo Cab!

    Congrats and drive it in good health!

    Re: Picked up my Turbo Cab!

    WOW Stradle that is absolutly beautifull,great photos,, I love all of it the wheels are mint,big big congratulations I have read in your spec that you have leather release levers, but on the photo they look vulcan grey ?? just about to put my final spec in for mine and it is very similar to yours, apart from the steering wheel is on the right side
    Enjoy it Stradle it's beautiful

    Re: Picked up my Turbo Cab!

    The leather release levers are on the rear seats. There is no such option for the front seats.

    Sorry if I misled you earlier. I double-checked it, and I found out my until-then trusted order guide was inaccurate (unless my other order guides are wrong).

    Thanks!!!!!!!!

    The Groom is correct, the leather release lever is for rear seats only. In the spec. it says rear seats >>CUX - Release lever rear seats leather<< It's nice but in a black interior it's not a must have (it doesnt have visible stitch). On tan or red it would be more visible..... So far there is no factory option for the front seat lever in leather. But make sure if you're doing leather seat backs that you spec the leather clothes hooks (CVY), unlike the rear seat release lever that covers black plastic w/ leather, the clothes hook in leather covers vulcan grey plastic. If the above is confusing, let me know I will re-write it.

    Good luck w/ your upcoming car!

    I cant wait to leave my office for a drive!!!!! It is "crisp" but love top-down cruizing. Another 20 degrees & I'll be in heaven! A few more weeks & we'll start feeling that convertible weather!!!!!!!!!!! Appreciate everyones comments, I read them all.

    Re: Picked up my Turbo Cab!

    Reviewing your option list.... did you change your mind on the wind stop with the "PORSCHE" script?? At one point I had thought you wanted that.

    I did change my mind on the PORSCHE script for the wind deflector. I thought it would be out of place a little bit on a Blacked out car. On a Silver car w/ black interior or even a Black car w/ silver wheels imo it would look great.

    Re: Picked up my Turbo Cab!

    Looks great as expected, congrats and enjoy

    Re: Picked up my Turbo Cab!

    Amazing Ride

    Re: Picked up my Turbo Cab!

    congrats on your new turbo. do you have a photo of Carbon Fiber trim strip ? I'm not sure if i saw that on these photos

    Re: Picked up my Turbo Cab!

    "Carbon Fiber trim strip" is nothing special. It's just the thin horizontal trim between the AC vents, behing which the cup holders are hidden.

    It's part of the 803 Carbon fiber package, but Stradale wanted the optional Aluminum gear lever and handbrake (ECA) too. Since both options are mutually incompatible, Stradale had the missing carbon fiber trim strip installed by the dealer when the car arrived.

    Re: Picked up my Turbo Cab!

    Awesome Turbo Cabriolet, congratulations!
    With dark dials it would be a perfect 10

    Re: Picked up my Turbo Cab!

    Looks great and nice pictures of the CF options, helps visualize what mine will look like. Enjoy

    Re: Picked up my Turbo Cab!

    thanks

    Re: Picked up my Turbo Cab!

    Phocking hawt, Gregg! Congrats! Your research and patience paid huge. I see Matt and Eddy did another flawless job. I may be there early May.

    Thanks Chris! Yup, they're on another level. Plus now they're working with both 3M & Venture film so they can do the hood w/ one piece & no line. If you need something done in May make sure you book it early enough that time of year they get very booked up.

    Hows the rides?

    Re: Picked up my Turbo Cab!

    Why are they working with 3M? VentureShield already has the material needed for full hood coverage. I know because that's what I have on mine.

    I was going to have my whole car done w/ Ventureshield but they showed me a couple of black cars w/ Ventureshield & 3M. 3M is better looking on Black, it's clearer but 3M doesnt come wide enough to do the whole hood in one piece so everyone is doing the hood w/ Ventureshield & all the rest w/ 3M. That's what I did too. On other colors besides black it would be very difficult to tell the difference but w/ Black under intense fluorescent lights you can see the 3M looks more like paint, it's shinier, clearer. Outside w/ black you can see there's a slight difference, not really noticeable if you werent really trying to compare but the 3M still looks slightly better. My hood is Ventureshield so there's no line, everything else 3M.

    Gotta run
