Thumbs up Saw sweet looking Texan Turbo...

I stopped briefly by Moffitt Porsche today to pay for my Girlscout cookies and spotted a beautiful Green Turbo pulling into a bay by the head Porsche technician. Noticed the tag said it was from Texas and hoping it someone's on this board. The wing wasn't stock and didn't get pictures of it because a few things stopped me from getting it. I did get a few shots of that gorgeous interior. It's tan and has beautiful wood trim every where including the speakers. It was drop dead gorgeous and could only get a few shots in. Was nice seeing it and hope to see more of it in the near future. Sorry about the poor quality pictures, cell phone.

From that photo I can tell the wing is stock, its the Porsche Areokit Wing


That is the one right?? As for the wood, it is classy, but just doesn't belong on a TT IMHO, but different strokes for different folks...

Can you post a couple more pics of the AeroKit? I'm thinking about getting it but I would like to see more angles...

Thanks!!!

Damn I am good, figured it out with that pic just by the crease in the side of the wing .
Here are some photos of my car when it had the aerokit...







Hope this helps your decision...

Evan, that beast is badass.

As for the green turbo, you can have it. Not my taste. Wood with gloss clear all over it just does not do much for me.

But, to each his own! I'm sure it's a stunner in person.

That wing is hot. Not too in to the green and the interior had too much wood trim.

Wood in a Porsche? That is a little too Cady for me. Maybe in about 65 years.

Wood should lower the resale on a Porsche... but it should only cost 2K to fix the damage.

Green on the hand will lower resale and you can't fix that.

check my sig for more aero pics...

Green with tan and wood belongs on a bentley or Aston (older ones) not on a TT IMO

The classic british style (green paint and beige leather interior plus burlwood) doesn't do it on a TT. It works on a Jaguar and maybe on a Mercedes SL... but not on a TT.
