Took Delivery of my TT Cab

GT Silver w/ Cocoa. Supposedly the dealer got permission to release the car early (I got it last Saturday) so I'm sure he won't mind me posting. Suffice to say the car is incredible. I've been away from Porsches for a couple of years and I forgot how intoxicating and addicting the torque is (this is my 4th TT). I haven't tried the "overboost" function but normal mode is pretty amazing. Frankly, if I had to sell the car tomorrow the 5 days of ownership would be worth it. The car is that good!

Thanks for the compliments! I'm extremely excited - getting ready to put another 150 or so miles on her today. I guess I need to change my avatar and signature. No more CS or 430 Spider.

Suprisingly, the dealer originally ordered the car for stock, had it sold, but the deal fell through. I really love the combo - I wasn't sure it was sporty enough at first, but it suits the car well ($2,450 for GT Silver paint is a bummer). He did a great job speccing it - painted PCM, console, Y trim, door finishers, gear lever, and the exterior lower parts, although I probably would have added painted sport seats. And, yes the 6 speed is superb. The throws feel a lot shorter than my last 996 TT (maybe the s/s is standard now?).
