Default New TT reporting for duty!

After a string of different P cars over the years ranging from Boxster S' to 991S Cab, yesterday I decide to step up and go for the legendary Turbo. I came home with a wonderful 2015 Agate Grey TT with the following options:

342 - Seat heating (front)
352 - Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control (PDCC)
446 - Wheel center caps with colored Porsche Crest
529 - SportDesign side mirrors
583 - Smoking package
602 - LED headlights incl. Porsche Dynamic Light System Plus (PDLS Plus)
630 - Light Design Package
640 - Sport Chrono Package
653 - Electric Slide/Tilt Sunroof in Glass
658 - Power Steering Plus
AZ - Leather interior in Black
N0 - Agate Grey Metallic
P3L - Premium Package Plus
ZAB - Ornamental Porsche Crest

I'll post a picture a little later once I get the car out for a drive, but I suspect you guys know what this color combo looks like already

I'm intending to use this as my daily driver and will be racking up quite a few miles as my roundtrip commute is 100 miles. I appreciate it makes no financial sense to use a car like this for that type of duty, but I decided that I wanted to have a car that makes me love my commute and also puts a grin on my face during the weekend twisties - YOLO!

Anyway, happy to be here and looking forward to my turbo charged experiences..

Agate Gray is a wonderful color. What doesn't make sense is having a great car and not driving it because it may be worth less in the future. Saving it for the next Guy???? Do you have plastic on your furniture??? Drive the hell out of it and what it is worth in the future is what it is worth. Drive it in good health.

Ditto. I use my Range Rover for the long drives but I do a lot of errands in the TTS and it's easy to park because it's so small. It's a good DD. Less worry about door dings with it than the big cars because you can create so much space. Anyway, looks like a really good build.

Sure does. It can really pop in the right light and has many different characters for a grey.

From a 150 mile Porsche Fun run yesterday with 14 Porsches.

Unfortunately the video on the back roads is too incriminating, lol.

Nothing much beats a spirited Fun Run with a bunch of Porsches on the twisiies.
