LOVE that blue, never seen it before. What a fantastic looking car. And btw- switching up in 7 days at that level is making me look bad so please keep this new one for at least two weeks:-)

I ended up getting rid of my cls63 along with the targa for the turbo. a decent 2 for 1 swap in my book. this turbo is a beast and every time i step on the gas in the turbo i SMILE!. the extra 17k/18k its going to cost me over the 30 months is well worth it to me. My plan would be to swap this turbo for the targa if/when it arrives in a couple years.
Cardood, I initially was going to do a Targa 4S as well. Coming from a CL63 PP with 563hp/664lb ft I soon realized that a NA 911 wasn't going to be enough power for me. I'm sooooo glad a got the TT instead. I just hope they don't come out with a TT Targa cause that would be a car I would have to have!

I agree turbo targa would be great.

the torque of those AMG motors are no joke.

Here is my only question. You have managed to buy or lease 2 hard to get cars and the blue is a PTS?!

Are you a Porsche franchise owner or just a really great customer? I suspect the later given your quick turn around.
just right place at the right time and i guess a good customer. the targa was there and available when i stopped by last friday the aetna wasn't in yet. I dropped by yesterday and when they showed the turbo in back it was an easy decision.

it is PTS Aetna Blue w/Atlas Gray the dealer ordered the car on their own.

How do you like your CLS? My 12 is below.

Cardood, your former CLS63 is beautiful! Is that Magno Alanite Grey paint? Was it difficult to maintain? Would you get matte paint again? I'm asking because I'm planning on ordering a 2015 CLS63 with 585HP in Magno Alanite Grey.
