I traded my 2005 996 turbo cab in for a 2008 997 turbo cab. What an excellent upgrade. Im am very impressed with the new car.

My fourth

I've owned a 95' coupe, a 97' C4S, an 06' cab, and an 08 TT cab, it's a midnight blue metallic with a dark blue top.

That's a great color combo. I like my car and have always wanted a turbo. I've heard if you drive one its all over. Do you drive your car in the winter?

Winter driving

On January 1st, I take my car off insurance, place it on a lift with a trickle charger X3 months. I now feel like I've ordered it all over again and I can't wait to start driving it again!

That's what I did; from a 997 S cab to a 997 Turbo Cab. Prior to the 997 S cab. I had a 996 Turbo Coupe. I'd highly recommend the move.



ps: Sorry this is OT but how do you post pictures directly in the msg. instead of thumbnails? Do I need more msgs. first or something? tia~

I use photobucket. Upload picture using photobucket. Pretty Self-explanatory. I use 1024 x 768 size. After the picture is uploaded I click on "skip this step now" to get to the correct screen. Under the uploaded picture in Photobucket there will be 4 rectangular blocks. The bottom one is "IMG Code" Left click on box to the right of "IMG Code" That will highlight the contents of the box. Right click on the highlighted area. A drop down menu will appear. Left click on copy. Go into the message box that you are typing the post on 6speed and right click. In the drop down menu right click on paste. That will insert the picture into the post. You can download many pictures into the same post. Just keeep coping and pasting. Some forums have limits - not sure about 6speed.

The 08 TT Cab you have is something else as I mentioned in PM before.

It goes beyond beautiful, it's exactly how my dad and me would configure it

I put a deposit on a T-cab today. Sept delivery date. The weirdest car buying experience I've ever had. You write a deposit check and walk out to your same car and go home. I took over somebody elses order that bailed. I have a few days to firm up the option choices. I'm not a great waiter!!

Hope I can make it 6 months LOL!!
