2 different markets buddy.... you cant configure a car in UK and just take that price and convert to US currency... For example a 997TT in Hong Kong is about $228,000 US Dollars....

im not sure the configurator is 100% right..there seems to be extras which i have been told are standard.
Anyway the car will be £100 000 approx with a few extras on....$170-180,000 .We always get screwed on price.
