    I am in heaven

    Thanks to all the reanteam members for your inputs in helping me spec my car. I love this car and can't wipe the smile off my face. I can't seem to notice any lag or squeaking from ceramic breaks and don't really miss the sport shifter and will not be installing it. I had it in my cab and frankly I am glad Porsche stop offering that. Many times at the light the sport shifter would not engage. I had to let the cab go at the last hour. It will be missed. I was so attached to it. I don't understand why would anybody be looking to power kit. This car is insane. The best decision that I made was the ceramic breaks and color white with painted sides. I parked it on a hill side today and the car looks so low with painted sides and lips. Next time I am willing to pay $20K for PCCB, thanks Stradale, thanks everyone again!!!!

    Beauty! But, you need a bigger garage brother!
    Tell me more about the shifter compared to your old 996 ssk, I'm debating whether to add it to mine or not.
    TIA

    strongly suggest you wrap those lower painted sills in 3M film - lots of debris marks on my unpainted black plastic - especially on the lower sills in front of the rear fender flares.

    Re: I am in heaven

    Wow! Looks amazing!! White is the best colour for this car... no doubt! Good decision to get the lips done too... as you say, it looks lower and more complete!! Keep those pictures comin and enjoy the drive!!

    Re: I am in heaven

    Awesome!

    Re: I am in heaven

    Congratulations, a real beauty. Enjoy it and drive safely.

    Re: I am in heaven

    Absolutely gorgeous motors. I must get myself a test drive in one. Can't afford one, but a test drive would be a good start.

    [edit]

    Hang on, more pics outside please in as high a res as possible....me feels a new desktop pic is on it's way.

    Re: I am in heaven

    Sweet ride. I just bought my second Porsche from Niello. Great dealership and staff.

    Thanks Chris. Actually the Sport shifter was on the 997S cab and most of the time it worked great but on many occasion after a stop it took few tries to engage. The STD shifter on TT is perfect and very short and smooth. Order the car with the STD shifter and if you don't like it then change it. I will not though. I do have 3 car garage but this car will be parked by itself. Good luck on your order. You will fall in love with this car

    Thx Super. My wife usually does not comment too much on my car's but you know what she told me after dinner last night as we were walking to the car? She said this car on white color looks like a race car and I think she is right.

    Re: I am in heaven

    How about some outdoor pics! Looks Great!
