It will not be me because I have a Gt3 on order, but after seeing it, I must say it's very tempting.

I guess I will be - I wonder if they're going to come out with a targa version? That would probably be ideal.

if you see it as a sl55 fighter it makes total sense. if you hate heavy cars, it's a step backward. if you need a profiler, it's sure a boom wala [thanks duane] lighter than an sl55 piggy truck.

I have a couple of orders in for one. At first I was hesitant because of the pricing, but @ $128,200 I think it's more realistic. My last TT was loaded up with and had about $13k in options. This puts a similar TT Cab at around $140K - about the same as an X50 TT. Count me in!

I am really thinking about it...Although the way I spev it out it will be a 180K sticker (if they have the aero option) so might just wait to get a Gallardo or the 360 replacement. I think the TT cab will hold its value much better than the coupe since it will only be an 04 car (new 997 comes out in MY05)

My dad has one on order (2nd at the dealership). It is his friend so he is gettin the car at sticker, and was able to be bumped to 2nd in line. Only problem is that he is a small dealer, and will probably only get 2 allocations a year MAX, so he is going to have to wait. We are going to spec the car soon, I just printed the order guide (thanks guys), and I will show it to him later. Should be a cool car, I can tell you one option its getting...X50.
