Back in a Pcar: Midnight Blue 997TT Cabrio

I picked this beauty up a few months ago and I'm definitely enjoying being back in a Porsche. Its not too bad in stock form but it could definitely use a few mods With a tune/exhaust/intercoolers the car should be good for about 500-550AWHP on 91 octane. It obviously doesn't quite handle like the GT3's I've driven, but it has great torque, drives silky smooth, looks stunning in Midnight Blue, and is optioned like crazy ($173k original MSRP). This is the ideal GT car bar none and I enjoy it MUCH more than my previous 996TT, which is no surprise haha. And even though I definitely prefer the coupe, the cabrio is actually starting to grow on me...especially since summer is right around the corner. I hope it will hold me over until I go with a GT3 or Mclaren 12C later this year.

Option List:

-Natural Full Leather
-Adaptive Sport Seats
-Multi-Stage Heated Front Seats
-Porsche Crest In Headrest
-Interior Color Floor Mats
-Speed Yellow Seat Belts
-Speed Yellow Instrument Dials
-Speed Yellow Deviated Stitching- Full Interior
-Sport Chrono Package Plus
-Locking Rear Differential
-Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes (PCCB)
-Alcantara Wrapped Steering Wheel
-Alcantara Trimmed Shifter, boot, & Handbrake
-Alcantara Covered Storage Lid Bin w/ 'Porsche' script
-Red Tail Lights
-Illuminated 'turbo' Stainless Steel Door Entry Guards
-Exterior Paint Color PCM
-Exterior Color Dash Trim Strip
-Exterior Color Headlight Cleaner Cover
-Exterior Color Painted Model Designation
-Exterior Color B-Pillar Seat Belt Outlet
-Exterior Color Switch Panel
-Exterior Color Rear Center Console
-Exterior Color Instrument Surround
-Exterior Color Sport Seat Backs
-Exterior Color Door Finishers
-Exterior Color Door Opener
-Aluminum Drivers Side Foot Rest
-Parking Sensors

My cousin bought the midnight turbo cab from Alex and got it about two weeks ago.
I got to see it and drive it for the first time yesterday. Wow, what a car.
Perfect options. Yellow stitching everywhere with yellow seat belts and tach matching the brakes. Blue painted trim everywhere else. Somebody went crazy in a good way. Every option you could want and more.
I drove it like it was meant to be driven and gave him a little scare.
And it was an easy and strait forward transaction. Well represented and thorough. A pleasure. Alex, Andy is a pig in ****.
Ill post up some pics when I see it next. Don't think I'll get him on here.

I'm glad everything worked out so smoothly and that Andy (and you!) are enjoying that blue beauty! Quite a car, for sure.
