Some folks here have managed to change their user names. You can try asking the mods.
I DD'd my TT from July to last weekend when I put it in the shelf for the winter. The TT is so good it makes me a little bit angry to drive anything else for more than a few minutes. The TT has ruined me for almost any other car. (Where almost does not include any of the other cars in my sig; they are still great. But, they are not winter-drivers.)
After the initial test drive it's hard to accept anything less.
Do not buy a Turbo because if you do, all reason goes out the window.

Honda, how does your new TT compare to the C2S? Low end torque and probably exhaust sound?
I briefly test drove the GTS before I got my TT so I can't compare a whole lot.

Exhaust has more "whoosh" sound than growl/bark. Power is endless. Really notice the extra body width - good thing.
Burmaster is big improvement over the Bose....cleaner/crisper.
Wish it didn't have the clear bra (Xpel)...1st time for me & on black, the edges show wax residue & left over glue - PITA.
So far the wrap not worth the trade off on a non "daily driver".

TT feels heavier & more planted. My 991C2S had SPASM and sat lower, but this car hugs the road better. Never had a car with rear wheel steering, but you point and it goes.

With the wrap, owning a black car has never been easier to maintain. Honestly Honda I'd wrap the whole thing and be done with it. Ownership then becomes a worry free experience rather than wincing every time you see a stone chip or swirl - which is going to happen without it. You can't avoid it.

I'd get it replaced....it is a crap install. The wrap should continue around behind the edges so you don't get that problem. I think the wrap is one of the best $ spent on a car like this, particularly on a black as it removes the chance of swirls as the car ages. My wife's is black and it washes up like showroom new every time. Amazing stuff.

↑↑↑ Ha ha.....I promised this Turbo was it.
I predict the new NSX will be tough to get for a while....then will be tough to sell after that (just like the original - but great car in it's day).
BTW had #17/50 Zanardi - as you know, they are very rare & collectable today.

Congrats!
Did you have the dealer drill license plate holes in the front for you? I've made that mistake once and regretted it. Now I use a tow hook license plate holder.
