Congrats, and know how it is to give up an old friend.

But we can see it... you've got the fever all over again.

I have owned both and the turbo is much more enjoyable if most of your driving is in the street.

Me thinks you will forget the "old" 996 in about 10 minutes after driving the "new" 996TT. Good luck with it - she's a beut!!
