Sorry mate, I can't.
But that looks really nice in white. I don't recall ever seeing a white one before.
Looks like it's in really good condition though.

Walnut Creek is about 15 min from my house, I'll try and stop by and report back.

What do you want me to look for? I know this dealership, strickly consignment.

Be aware there are two different white's - Grand Prix white and Glacier white. Glacier is the the "whiter" white. It is the more rare color and since it's the color of my car it the "better" white. I've heard TT's are much faster in this color:roflmao

I respectfully disagree, grand prix is much faster ;-)

You have avatars turned off?

Grand Prix was the 96 color and Glacier was the 97 color. Sitting by themselves, I like Grand Prix better. But I have to admit Grand Prix looks a little dingy sitting next to a Glacier car. Still like Grand Prix better.

If Todd can't make it by Nohr's, let me know and I'll go check it out for you.

Greg......awesome looking WHITE....so pure and sexy! is it Glacier or Grand Prix....can't tell from the picture.

I've owned pastel yellow 993TTS, Wimbeldon green TT, and now a Grand Prix white TT, yet doubt if I ever seen such gorgeous white as the one in your avatar! - may be its just the photography... ;-)

Thanks, it's Grand Prix. I like the photo because it's an "action" shot. I've taken hundreds of the car parked under varying lighting with expensive DSLRs and a friend's snap shot is the winner. Go figure.

What I should have said was, I have never seen one in the flesh, so to speak.
I still think white is really nice. They say white is the new black, trend wise, down here anyway.
I don't think there are any in NZ. They just look so clean.
Arena is slightly faster, but that's to be expected.
