Turbos are not for everyone. I was seconds away from getting a great 2007 with all the good options. I did get a PPI from a Porsche dealer and the car is great.

I am a GT3 guy and so I am going to stay with them. If anybody is interested in a silver pccb,dif,chrono list was >$140K the asking price is $85K 13,000miles

Congrats, what color 3 did you get?
Coming from a 996 gt3, not sure a tt is for you anyway. Besides, like dirty harry said, 'a man's gotta know his limitations' jk, congrats!

whyb2nd

can't blame you, drove a friends 997 3 for awhile and loved the communication that car relays.

The depreciation on the tt is simply astounding...

TT Gasman

the gt3 isn't far behind on the depreciation curve.

It's better than some. I bought an 06 SL65 that was orginally 187 for 63K 3 months ago.

I understand, I use to have an 04 GT3 and I prefer it than my current 03 turbo. The handling is very different. If I had the chance I would jump back in a GT3.

Porscheholic

Damn - sounds like an awesome Turbo, but about 6 months too soon for me. Where is the car at and where was it advertised?

boolala

My cousin paid over 200 K for one when they first came out.

I understand that the 12 cylinder MBs have some of the worse depreciation curves of any vehicle.

It is in the Seattle area. PM me if you are interested and I will make the connection. It is a cool car and if I wanted a turbo I would have gotten it. Like I said before the GT3 is the car for me as I track a couple of days a month.

I recently went through planning to order a 2010 GT3 and ended up with a TT. After lots of analysis, the TT makes more sense for me for a number of reasons, one of which is the need for back seats, and one of which is the reality of my driving habits. While I am not disappointed and feel I made the right decision, all things considered, I still have some pangs for a GT3-like RWD car and I'm still getting used to AWD (first for me). However, I can see myself beefing up the suspension as time goes on (and I knew I had that option when I went for the TT). Sounds like you made the right decision, for you. Now ask me again after I finish break-in and spend more time in turbo-boost and redline!

yeah...........i got a hankering for the 2010 GT3 and have tried to sell my 08TT. I got plenty of offers..down in the 95K range. This was a dose of reality for me. I was mre than just "astounded" by the depreciation. My dealer has the car on consignment for a couple of months in his show room. People have oohed ovr it, but no offers.

I picked it up yesterday and headed out to the back-roads around Mobile and ran it as fast as I could. I think it is time for me to think about some mods and keeping my car!

Glad I'm not the only one. I'm currently looking for a 997tt and figure the stretch to a gt series isn't that far. I do like a NA engine. The only problem is(light your flame throwers) is that it only comes in manual. I think I would prefer the handling of the gt, as I don't mind a rough ride, but rowing gears in Miami traffic really makes you think about it twice.

Cowhorn

This is hard for me to understand.

If you prefer an automatic transmission over a manual because of the traffic in Miami, then how and when could you appreciate the handling of a GT car?

mikegee

it would be handy for U Turns.
