TT Order Issue

I had an issue last week because 2 months ago I configured my TT and placed an order for June build September delivery 2015 model. On Wednesday of last week dealer called saying Porsche middle east cancelled all 2015 allocations so in effect my order got cancelled.

Was furious. Luckily the dealer has a cancelled order that arrived which is 95% similar to my custom order. So I have to live without PDCC, stitched seats, power steering plus, adaptive cruise control and reverse camera. The car also has a different wheel (car came with cf with gear change buttons....I ordered alcantara sport design with paddles) and seatbelts (came black...I ordered racing yellow) to my configuration that the dealer agreed change for me. The car also has painted PCM (yellow) which looks horrible IMO so they are changing that whole thing for me to the standard black. Also insisted on painting the red brakes yellow to match the racing yellow color and window tinting and protective film on bonnet as part of the deal. They accepted so I'm going down tomorrow morning with my chequebook.

So looking forward to taking delivery of my new 2014 TT in the next week or 2 hopefully.

I was told that Porsche were holding off on new turbo production until the GT3 production is restarted so no custom orders as long as the showroom has cars the dealer would need to sell those cars.

Yellow looks amazing, especially with the yellow gauges.

It is interesting...you can't pull off yellow with any car. Porsches manage with Ferraris. My first love was a 348 spider yellow with black interior with yellow stitching.

The Gallardo pulls it off as well. It's sort of a metallic yellow. Not as in your face as the Porsche yellow

Yeah I don't think you can get a 2015 in July. I'm pretty sure first 2015 will be in September.

I'm thinking of picking up a yellow turbo s cab. Glad to see I'm not the only one seeing yellow.

I'm a little scared of when it actually shows up that it will be too much.

Jeff
