new ptt owner

Just wanted to say hello to the panamera board. I just traded from a 2012 cayenne to a 2011 ptt.

I haven't had the car for long, but I love how this car offers heaps of performance without sacrificing practicality. I wanted to pick up a 997gts, but with 2 kids under 3yrs I just didn't see how it would work (even as a weekend car).

I also happen to be in the camp that thinks these cars are gorgeous.

You will find a few of us with the same story, it's great to enjoy your toys with your family.

Have a great time and enjoy it in good health.

Welcome to the board, lots of good peeps in here.

It's a great car with kids - my kids love it.

Here is a link to the best child car seats I have found - they have hard points that lock onto the latch points in the rear seats - by far the best and then you can convert them to just boosters later.

I regularly drive with young ones in the back and I find that the britax frontier booster fits quite nicely and allows me to still have the kids in five point harnesses.I love that they can climb in to the car themselves being a sedan rather than an suv.

Many thanks for the warm welcome and booster seat recommendations!

The four of us spent all day Sun enjoying the new (to us) beauty. The first time my wife stomped on the pedal, she smiled like a kid and told me she understands now why I wanted this car so badly ;-)

I'll try to get some pics up tomorrow. Gt silver metallic w black 20" wheels. Gorgeous!

Congrats on your new car - you will love the PTT - I have a 9 and 11 year old. The 11 year old plays travel baseball and travel ice hockey - the PTT is the perfect car for carting him and a buddy around with the "stuff". And they love to arrive in it as well!

Enjoy!

If it doesn't scare her when she stomps the pedal, you need more power!

Congrats!

If a member wishes to post personal info so be it...but no member should take it upon themselves to publish or copy someone else's info....if you have a dispute with another member report it to staff don't take it upon yourself by posting in public

And I have done so, with no results from GT3 the moderator!

threats to other members
it has come to our attention that you are threatening other members that you are going to make public private emails sent to you regarding a transaction...let me first tell you that posting private emails (not private messages) is forbidden and will get you banned so please don't do that...also, threatening another member is a serious offense and I would ask you to knock it off immediately...put your issue behind you and get on with your life...you were asked to settle it off of the board and I am still asking you to keep it off of 6speed...thanks, chuck

That is not true at all...we take all member complaints very seriously....we investigated your claim and found that you negotiated a separate deal for an item that was not advertised here...therefore, there was no action we could take and you were told so...you were asked to settle your dispute off of the board for that reason and I'm asking you once more to do that and put the issue behind you when it comes to this forum
