How many Turbos a day do you see?
I see one or two a month - there is a 997GT2 that I see on occasion (white/black - it's hot).
Not many here in the SF Bay area - considering the $$ spent on cars here in Sillycone Valley...

Its been said that the 996TT is the "Chevy" of Orange County because they are just everywhere....got to agree, I see them all over LA and even more so down south....a horrible problem to have....kind of like having to look at all the girls out here....
I lived in downtown Chicago when I was in law school and I rarely saw anything cool, except when they closed down Oak Street and put a bunch of Ferraris on there....otherwise, slim pickings....except the girls which were extremely good looking...wholesome girl next door hot w/o a lot of the after market parts like they get out here...plus a much more grounded w/o the "head full of snakes" you encounter in these neck of the woods.
Oh yeah, we were talking about cars...

I saw 2 today, and on average I would say I see about 10 a week. includes 996 and 997tt's
In Northern Virginia and DC I saw a whole 5 in 9 years
and 2 were at a dealer. People didn't want to drive them in town on the nasty roads and nasty place.

hey did you get your car from Chicago Motor Cars? that looks like there garage
on a sunny sunday,I`d stop counting them...but it`s always depending on how long I actually am not in any kind of building
average day : 5+
but I guess it`s more,since I don`t even look too much after them anymore while they are parked because it`s so "normal" to see one

I was just talking to a friend about this 2 days ago. Out here in LA we're super spoiled. On top of that, my job has me on the road quite a bit during the day traveling to and from my clients houses which are mostly in Beverly Hills, Bel Air, Hollywood Hills, Brentwood and Pacific Palisades, so I'd say I easily see 10+ TT's a day. I also usually see 3-5 Lambo's a day (mostly Gallardo's) and at least 10+ Ferrari's. Then there's the ton of Roll's, Bentley's and Aston Martin's around here. BMW's and Mercede's and Range Rover's are as common as a Honda Accord or Toyota Camry around here. When I went to North Carolina a few years ago, the ONLY two European cars I saw were a BMW 740i and Porsche 924. Everyone out there drove good ole American Iron lol
I see 1 other TT every day in my own parking lot at work...in cleveland... a yellow convertible X50 ... yellow seats.... I thought I was the only nut job to own this car in a city that is gray 55% of the year.
I hardly see even an 911 here in my neck of the woods. Thats one of the beauty of living in truck and vetteville an porsche seems exotic. But I do always rubberneck past the Porsche dealer down the street at the one turbo they seem to always have in stock
