Got my turbo!!!
She's Lapis blue/savannah w/ deviating carpet
Full leather console, dash vents...
Thanks for all the help guys!
I'm loving the car...but I think the exhaust needs a little uncorking.
GIAC II sounds nice too.
Any reliability probs w/ the giac?
here's some shots...

the blue deviating carpet is very unique!
congratulations
as far as i know, the GIAC is pretty relialible, many of the 6speeders have it and no complaints.
probably more attributed to the 996 Turbo's engine being nearly bulletproof in design and less on the tuner's

congrats ... looks brand new and a very good looking color combo.
I've had no issues whatsover with my STage 2 GIAC ... and it really makes a difference and is a necessary upgrade imo.

Best of luck with the car.
I would suggest removing the rear bumperttes and sending them to Eric at bumperplugs.com (rennlist sponsor and good guy) to get them painted Lapis to match. There is a pic on his website in the bumperette section of a lapis 996TT with painted bumperettes (mine).
I have deviating carpet and stitching (metropol blue) with graphite grey interior; you don't see deviating too often.

silver hood crest vs the colored one?
whats the diff i thought mot guys like the colored wheel caps over the silver/blk?
symbolic (lajolla) had a blue/grey dviating color like yours...looked REALLY sharp. If those guys werent suh schmuks and hoehn hadnt given me such a great deal (certified w/ 2/100k warranty) i might have gone w/ it.
This car is simply AMAZING
100th post....WOOT!

Are you sure that is not Natural Brown vs. Savannah ?? Savannah comes with the dash vents painted to match where Nat Brown has black dash and vents like in a Boxster.

The dash vents are my fav part - they are actually BLUE LEATHER!
