Default 2007 997TT in the stable!!!

Edit. New pics added to post 13.


I sold my 05 LE 911S and have been on the hunt for a replacement for that AND my 04 supercharged GTO. The goat was my drag strip toy but at a little over 1000 crank hp it was not usable on the street anymore and it attracted a LOT of attention.

This seemed like the best compromise for my hobbies. The wife and I like to hit the DEs 6-10 times a year and i like to hit the drag strip on occasion as well.

We have suspension, wheels/tires, rotors/pads/fluid plans first then will add an exhaust and tune with a stronger clutch at that time. I already installed my V1, ScanGauge, and Dectane LED tails and had the car detailed and a new XPEL clear bra installed.

It is a blast to drive and the TPC turbo kit I had on my 911S really hooked me on that turbo power! The GTO's TVS supercharger was brutal on power delivery where this is smooth as silk and the AWD helps with that traction!

It was a one owner, 33K mile car with all service records and a clean DME scan. It also has the Porsche 2/24 CPO!

The color is SO SEXY. Atlas grey is amazing in and out of the sunlight!!! Sport chrono, full leather, sport adaptive seats, Bose, ect, ect.

Here are a few photos:






Stone interior with carbon fiber trim:

Welcome to the family. Looks like one clean Turbo.

Enjoy.

Hey! I was wondering about that new signature picture of which there was no mention in your car list!
Well done, that looks nicely detailed and the color looks great.
Good luck

Beautiful car - I just picked up the exact same car - Atlas Gray with stone gray and carbon trim - only difference is mine has PCCB. We're twins!

Nice, Doc. Atlas was my second choice when I ordered mine. But I have for years been a sucker for red.

The Porsche metallic colors do magic transformations in/out of sunlight.

New wheels on and she is in for the suspension upgrades as we speak! OZ Ultraleggeras in 198.5 and 19X11. I got the 40mm offsets in the rear instead of the 51s to fill in the fenders better as you can see in the 3rd photo. Overall I lost 12lbs over the factory wheels.

If you don't use the car for off-roading then definitely lower it and it would look killer

Joking aside, beautiful car and black wheels make it look almost perfect

Awesome color though.

Oh, that is in the process. GMG WC springs & sway bars, GT3 LCAs, Tarett end links, and custom alignment. A Fabspeed V3 exhaust, Deman slotted rotors & Hawk DTC-60 pads are going on as well and the clutch and tune will be in next.
