Hey Al!
Thanks! Miss you guys.
Yup. Decided to go with the Turbo Cab. Not going to wait for the S Cab. The design of the Turbo is going to make a sick looking Convertible.
How bout you?

If you already have that monster of a cab than why get a 997tts cab? Get the coupe and give it 600 hp, that with your current cab and a noble 400, what a collection!

Yes, I'm still in line with my dealer for a 997TT-they've got me covered for the TCab and TSCab, even the GT2 if I wanted. I think I'm holding out for the TSCab, unless you and everyone else with a TCab convince me with your rave reviews and pics next spring that it's not worth the wait-presumably the TCab will be in your hands by then.
I probably will eschew the GT2-I have a Noble M400 being assembled in Indianapolis as we speak for my summer thrash coupe and track club fun at Watkins Glen-no racing though-and, if you look at my signature, I cranked up my 2005 996TSCab that you attracted me to last summer with your excellent pics of the same car (triple black with tons of CF) at Brandywine Porsche. Mine now has 600 peak HP from Evolution Motorsports' stage 4 tuning package, with new headers, silicone hoses, billet aluminum diverter valves, Venturi flow airbox, ECU chip from GIAC, with the Milltek exhaust and Sachs clutch (to handle the prodigious torque-peaks out over 620 lb-ft at 4,000rpm's). A local mechanic did the install. Man, what a blast, it's good for 0-100mph in the 7's, the quarter in the low 11's. So I'm "pacified" enough with the 996TSCab and my impending Noble to await the 997TSCab...unless you guys convince me otherwise.

It is!
Now that the steel brake have 6 piston front calipers the calipers are as big as the PCCB's. That's actually the first question I had for the rep yesterday. He said the front & rear calipers on the steel brake setup & the PCCB's are the same size. I'm still uncertain about whether I will order PCCB's or not. I probably will, love them on my CS.
btw: If anyone's interested in my 997 S cabriolet I will be putting up for sale shortly. The car is perfect, probably better than new because it's already had the proper break-in and has 3M armour profesionally installed.

Stradale, Welcome back. I am keeping the convertible and getting the slower manual TT coupe , Sept build. Should be a fun wait. Dealer had only one allocation for July build and some guy had his name in the damn list since 2004 so I guess I won't be driving in July.
