996TT newbie

[robbom3]

After a lot of deliberation, I've taken the plunge. I'm picking up my 996TT a week tomorrow, and just can't wait !!!!

It's a 2003, in slate grey, with black leather. It has PCM, Bose, and most importantly the X50 option.

Drove it last weekend, and was absolutely stunned by the performance. I thought I was used to quick cars, but this is something else !!!!

Thanks to those of you on this board who gave advice / insight into Turbo ownership, it was really useful in helping me to decide.

What a great spec! Gotta love slate grey. The X50 pack is very nice. Bose and black leather.....the ultimate 996 Turbo?

Well done! It would be nice to hear from you after you've picked the car up....with pics of course!

Is it the one from Cridfords?

[robbom3]

Thanks for all the messages of support.

I'll certainly post some pics next weekend.

Yes, it is the one from cridfords.

I think it's going to be a really long week !!!!

Excellent news.

Always fun taking delivery of a new car. Just make sure you get over to Germany for some fun on their derestricted autobahn.

If you intend on driving the car hard at times I'd suggest fitting an alloy gearshift linkage instead of the plastic one the car leaves the factory with. Details can be found if you click on the 996 turbo in my profile. Look at August and September 2004 entries.

Thanks Dazren, I'll definitely take a look at that.

BTW, does anybody know how easy (or otherwise) it would be to retro fit the small carbon pack (Gear lever, and handbrake) ??
