Congrats. Great car. What made you choose PDK? I've seen other thread where you state that...it's not for you.

Very very nice. Everyone looks happy and having just come out of a white car I know why with a black TT the white was attractive to you. Looks like the clears were on it on the showroom floor.

At the time it wasn't and I even originally looked for a manual . But then I drove the PDK and I paid notice to some of suggestions and ideas presented on the forum. I considered having the variety and what that meant to the overall experience . That changed the dynamics of the purchase dramatically.

I believe that havinng an open mind means procesing concepts and if valid re examining ones view. I wasn't going to have one Porsche . I was adding another.

In my opinion having the latest state of the art PDK offers another dimension that I may not have considered . And when I drove it .. I was having fun. I really was having fun .

If I could ONLY pick one would it be PDK ? Nope. I would have bought a manual but I also would have bought aTurbo or ordered a Gt3. In fact I have said all along that I will keep my Turbo .

I have never said I am keeping my PDK forever but I did say that i want to get my feet wet and so far it's been really great.
Right here , right now, this deal, this car, this PDK .. it's working

Sounds Great Larry,
Im glad you are happy with it. Keep posting as you use the PDK. It really is a great box. I know you were really skeptical and still sound a bit skeptical, but give it time and you will really love it.

Congratulations! Enjoy!

Great Pics Larry...VERY happy for you. I hope to have a smile like that soon.
Love the white and the interior make the car. Should be a little easier to maintain than the BLK TT

Larry, if you decide to keep this one as long as the Si, let me know first and I'll have one of Intercity's trucks on your doorstep to take it off your hands. Of course, you'll give me the fellow 6speeders disount, right?

Can't wait to have a white with terracotta in my garage by mid August

Congrats on the new ride! You have quite a stable. Love the white on red. I would love to see the painted seat backs with center console if you do that anytime soon. I have tenatively specced my Nov build GT3 that way.

I see you bought yours from the Collection as well. What kind of discount did you get? I only got 5% off my ordered car but I ordered mine in 7/08 for 11/08 delivery before things got cheaper. I suspect you got 10% off or more.
