sounds like a nice combo, esp the yellow accenting the brakes...i would encourage you to maximize yellow accent stitching throughout if you like the yellow...it will make the interior amazing...i am biased though because i did that in mine except with red

I was thinking of getting the whole interior with deviated stitching but I"m thinking it might be a bit much . I need to look at some more pics online.

Congrats on the order. I also have a Carrera white 2011 TT MT on order with an estimated completion date of September 6. Did many of the same things as you, on performance the main diffs were I passed on the PCCBs and ordered the Spyders (although I wish I hadn't as I am pretty sure am I going to upgrade to 20" wheels). Other than exhaust and ECU flash I am going to sit tight with other mods for awhile.

As a third pedal guy I did agonize over the sheer amazing power of the TTs. I was in London last week and picked up AutoCar magazine for the plane ride home and there was a great, long article racing 9 cars over a straight km - Ferrara 458, TTs, LFA, GT-R, Moble M600, SLS AMG, etc. The TTs finished 2nd and blew every car away in the 1/4, 0-60, 0-100, etc. Here is a blog on that, 6 speed onliners should try to pick up a copy of the article: http://www.autocar.co.uk/blogs/still...e-results.aspx

Awesome. I myself am going to London next month to visit family.

I will possibly slap on a set of HRE P40's in 20's as well which is smiliarto the RS Spyder wheels. I would pick up a TTS instead if I could get it in manual with/out PDK and the RS wheels and a price reduction. I just want that extra power and few standard features.

A TTs with an MT would be cool.

I love the P40s although I am leaning toward the AMT Forged Alloy Tech1-110s.
