Welcome! White is an awesome color on a TT, and the x50 option is a really nice HP upgrade.

I have one as well - do enjoy. The acceleration is addicting. Like having a sport's bike on four wheels.

Check your radiators up front with a flashlight - chances are they were not cleaned. I found a plastic bag, cigarette butts, rotting leaves, etc. Search for Front Bumper Cover Removal (there is even a youtube video). Not sure how your black plastic is holding up. I am in the process of painting / replacing all that faded stuff.

Holy Tamale - very nice!

Is that your daily driver? How did you find it? Did you get a fair deal?

I hope there are no speedbumps in your neighborhood!

Cool. I am also looking for a new 911, so let me know if you intend to sell. I am near the Commodore Barry Bridge, south of you.

BTW, I am obvioulsy getting old, as I have no idea what "lip" means. I'm guessing that is the new "ride?"
