Well, just on cost alone the 997tt should have a head start (about 92k GBP). What are the costs for the 599 and LP640, they must be well over 100k GBP?

[JOETHETOE]

Not sure but would imagine they are over or aroung the £150k mark.

Thought the Turbo would be circa £110k???

Either way its cheaper than the other two and classier for me? the others are very ostentacious (forgive if incorrectly spelt)and I just love the grils on the side and much prefer the 993 style circle lights!!

[pesty]

lambo is around £190-200k

[buster]

TT with a few extras comes in abt £105/6k.

[JOETHETOE]

Buyers can expect the 599 GTB to command a price tag of around £165,000 - £10,000 more than the outgoing Maranello??

TT does look like good value all things considered

silly comparison IMHO

TT v 430 v Gallardo SE (or new one with extra power)

Murci v 599 v Vanquish (no Porsche competes in this sector / price bracket)

CGT v SLR v Zonda (though Zonda is a lot more expensive)

TT wins on practicality, price, subtlety, loses on rarity, charisma, specialness, noise

997 TT is £97,840 and is fully loaded (includes Bose, nav, metallic, sunroof etc.) - no reason to spend 6 figures on this car, making it far cheaper than the competition.

Im speccing mine at the moment for July delivery and I cannot see how anyone can spec one reasonably for under 100k.

What extras are you putting on?

[430 Spider]

Mine is coming out at £105k

[Adam B]

by the way don't buy the magazine

its total crap as I found out to my cost

not a TT v Lambo v Ferrari at all, no actual driving , just 3 previews of the new cars with in studio photos

Will still be interesting to see the results regardless?
