Hey gents,

Just wanted to say that I have finally decided to get a 08 997TT less than 1000 miles and have scratched the 08 Z06 idea all together. Basalt Black Metallic with Sand Beige interior with PCCB's. Its already arranged to be dropped off to SPI and Tym Switzer for a monster SPI800 pump gas kit, KW Variant coil overs, and misc. exterior mods. I also will be adding my HRE P40's in flat black from my 996TT to her. Yes I will miss my 996TT but I am excited for the new baby! Just wanted to share...and I will post picks when I get her delivered!

Sounds like it will be awesome. You sure 800hp is sufficient?

After my test drive, I would have to say its an absolute improvement. The interior is what sold me. I guess for the money...07 997's can be had fo bargains right now and the longer you wait the deal gets better! I just couldn't wait anymore

Congrats Les. I think you definitely made the right decision. We will let you know when the car arrives and update you on the progress. It will get a package that is similar to the 997 GT2 that is currently in progress. Welcome to the Big Boy's Club!
