My 8 and 9 year old daughters can. Wife said she say a car like mine the other day, not many black TT cabs here. My 9 year old corrected her and explained why it was a C4S cab and not a turbo.

Does it bother you that your $130K+ TT is seen as just another 996 C2 ($75k) by 99% of the population? It's not like base C2s are garbage, but it seems like the majority cannot distinguish a TT from a C2...
Not at all.

That's the beauty of it, doesn't attract that much more(unwanted) attention than a C2. I don't give a **** what people think of me or my car or the two of us!

I haven't really had people ask which model my car is, but I do get "how much did it cost?" alot.

The answer of course is "twice as much as a Carrera" (if you really want to rub it in).

I don't care if they think it's a 350-Z. I bought the car for me. (It's all about me - always. Just ask my wife). :-)

My 350Z never gets confused with anything. It's a great car but I want a P-car.

If you think that's bad, imagine what the buyers of the upcoming $100,000 600 hp Blue Demon Corvette are going to hear!

"Yep, got me a blue vette just like yours. It ain't new, but I paid a whole twelve thousand for it. Payments only a hunnerd dollars a month."

Probably same deal for owners of $440 K Porsche Carrera GTs hearing " wow - Boxsters come now with wood shift ***** ?! "


( In response to orig thread- those who can't tell a C2 from a Turbo can't tell a new 911 from a 40 y/o one either other than one has more exterior chrome , so don't worry about . )

Haha, could be part of nasty divorce settlement, but I just saw what appeared to be a 65 year old grand mother with glasses and grey hair driving a Dark Blue 996 cabriolet with an aero kit. Not good with ages, but she looked older than my mother. Nice looking car with aero kit. I love it. More power to her, especially if she is driving a stick and not a tiptronic.
