Turbo in person

So..I've got nothing really to look at but stupid pictures until my car arrives in July. I went up to the dealer on Saturday to see a slate TT. I have to say that pictures do this car absolutely no justice. They just don't capture the lines and stance at all. In person, the car is a completely different animal than in pictures. I can not wait until I take delivery.

I'm waiting for a Slate 997TT, too. It's supposed to get here end of May/early June. The wait is driving me nuts.

I agree well worth the wait...specially if you built it to your liking. Your also right pictures do this car no justice. Saw one on the road today and it is just pure beauty and eye candy.

The WAIT

I'm in the same boat and I feel your pain. My Meteor 997TT should be completed in 10 days and be delivered in late May. Maybe we could meet sometime, say in Kansas City?
