Porsche Newbie
Hi All,
I'm new to this forum and bought my first Porsche 3 weeks ago.
A 2008 997 TT, Carrara white w blk/grey int, 6 spd mt, sports chrono, adapt sport seats.
I am loving it so far! I never knew these Porsches were so good until now! It's all stock but I think my first mod will be an exhaust system, seems a bit too quiet for how much performance it has.

Nice car. I am on the hunt myself. Crazy thing is I already have wheels and tires for a car I don't own yet! They were just too cool to let slide by.

Exhaust was my first mod less than two weeks after purchase. This car needs it to wake up the sound. Congrats on the purchase!

Which exhaust did you or others get? I heard Europipe and Cargraphic were good.

Also, thanks for the other welcomes!
