Talking Birth Announcement !!!!

I would like to proudly announce the birth of my bundle of joy this 4th day of March, 2008. Weight 3,490 pounds, Length 176.26 inches. MY08 997TT

B4 Carrara White
AT Black Full Leather Interior
450 Ceramic Composite Brakes-PCCB
CXB Illuminated Stainless Door Entry Guards
P01 Adaptive Sport Seats
XMZ Rear Center Console-Leather
XSC Porsche Crest in Headrest
TV Door Finishers in leather
220 Axle-Differential Lock Rear
342 Heated Front Seats
640 Sport Chrono Package
810 Floor Mats in Interior Color
XPA Thicker Steering Wheel-Leather
XSB Sport Seat Backs in Leather
CDZ Gear Lever Trim in Leather
CUV Storage Cmpt Lid w/Model Logo
DAD Gear Lever/Handbrake Alu./Leather

I am so excited! Final production was today and I have my VIN #, etc. Now just waiting for him (it is a boy, girl are too high maintenance) to be put on ship (I am praying for a large tailwind across the Atlantic). Should be here in approx. 45 days (if I am lucky I will be able to write a check to uncle sam and porsche all at once - oh goody!). I will keep you posted and of course, pictures when he arrives!

Congrats

Now let's just hope your ship doesn't get bounced around on the high seas. BMW just lost 300 or so of their vehicles that way on the way over.

Congratulations, I cant wait to see the pictures of your new Turbo. I know you were terrified when you heard about the production going to halt a few days ago.
