My Replacement for 997TT

Whats up fam. After nearly 2 months without the 997TT I finally picked up the replacement!

What a car this thing. Grigio Lynx on saddle Elegante interior. I flew to Houston and drove it 250 miles back to Dallas yesterday. The ride is perfect, the steering perfectly weighted and sharp, transmission ultra fast, smooth and of course smart when in sport/auto - and the sound is intoxicating (though I've ordered Fabspeed exhaust ;-)

I stopped to get some gas and was nearly mobbed by a truck full of kids. The grownups all came to see the car, some tripped while trying to walk straight while looking at the car. My Vipers, NSX, Lotus, Porsche's, XKR all were show stoppers but this thing is on a different level.

I told wife, it is impossible to drive this car while being in a bad mood. Between the big grin from the feel, sound, acceleration etc combined with the immediate dosage of "feel good" it gives most people that enter its presence, it will ensure there are no bad moods while driving or riding in the car LOL.

Already ordered Fabspeed exhaust and Novitec adjustable springs. Now looking for wheels!

You nailed the color combo. I love to look at the green and orange ones but this is a Lambo I would own. Congrats.

Thanks guys. Yes, I too love the Orange and even Yellow. But the gray is far more timeless and versatile. Not that a yellow or orange Lambo isn't timeless - it is a Lambo afterall. But you get what I mean.

Never seen one in person. That is really cool looking. What do those puppies run? I heard about them before they came out but hadn't even seen one at the NYC auto show.

Fantastical looking vehicle - super futuristic.
