Never again, even though I am craving a 991 TTS, I have decided to wait it out...... for now, LOL.

Best of luck with your vehicle.
My business partner had the same issue with his Super Duty. He's waiting for the 2015 and is going to buy another. He's a glutton for punishment.

When the buying bug gets you, no one can talk you out of it. Good luck waiting it out, I couldnt. Ate, drank and slept TT. LOL

PS. I haven't driven a TT yet, but I would seriously doubt the sort of vibration you are describing is inherent to the TT.
Thanks Keith. Cant wait to get it back and not have to roll out of it. The meds will get me through the surgery but they dont make pill to get over your new car sitting in the shop.

Thanks Wisky, its a tough pill to swallow.

JoeNo, I also wish you well on the back surgery - May it go smoothly and be 100% successful.
I also have lived with back problems for many years, and owning a 991 GT3, I can feel your pain, literally and figuratively!

Hope they figure this out. Scares me from getting too into the 991s. They are beautiful cars, but too complex for me. Good luck!

Hey thanks man. The surgery went well. I got some good painkillers so it looks like I'm going to be laid up for the next few days watching TV. Thanks again fast lane!

Ha! I'm married to an Eagles and Flyers fan :-)

It was a rough year for both-worse for the Steelers for sure! I'm more of a hockey nut anyway so it is never too painful.

Oh that is great that they found the problem. I really hope that does it for you man. I agree whole-heartedly. They should give you some sort of credit for the time lost-especially with the car being so new.

Looking forward to connecting for that coffee!

Mike

Well since I'm also a Red Wings fan I like Chelios.

Did I mention that the wife is a die hard Flyers fan?-ugh.

Good luck with the resolution with the car. I would probably be quite upset as well by now.
