Wow, 43rd huh? Seems a little ridiculous there's that many people on the list considering all that's gone on with 996 pricing and all. Many of us with modified Turbo's I'm sure would be unhappy with stock 997 Turbo. I'm sure it will take some time for 997 mods to roll. It would seem at 43rd you won't be in the first year anyway.

Thanks Lou, But I am going to wait ......chances are I will have the second run of the turbo. Also, that gives time for the mods to be available. Ritchie I have the fabsped supersport.

Rumor has it that the 997 Turbo will be offered with F1 Shift paddles and 500 Horses. Not sure if they mean that the tip will have the paddles or they wont offer a stick shift.

Anyone want to guess what color i am going to Order?????

i didn't have to leave a deposit to get in writing that i am promised my dealer's first 997TT allocation

i will probably try to flip it to some sucker.

hell, if the ford GT is being moved at a 200k premium.

yah, I remember when I bought my TT in June of 01 in LA, they were still going for 20-30k over sticker. So Im sure the dealers will be jacking the 997's in a similar way.

Imagine that, buy a 997TT for 20K over sticker, the 998TT comes out in a year or two and you can sell your low mile 997TT for 40K under msrp....so Porsche!!!! net loss, 60K

Any info on what motor will be in the 997TT? Will it be a different motor than the normal 997 or will they just slap some turbos on the 997 motor?

Imagine selling your 997TT first allocation spot for 20k over to someone who just can't wait. Then two years later buy it back from that person for 40k under. Net gain, 60k for mods and a very nice vacation.
