I spec'd one yesterday and all the interior colors were available as well as the two tone leather. I added a bunch of leather exclusive parts and a few others like heated/ventilated seats and painted side skirts and the grand total was 179,000$ for the coupe!!!! YIKES. The lease per month was over 3300. I have an 09 TT 6 speed but like the pdk, pvt, center-lock wheels so was considering the switch but not if it is gonna cost me another mortgage.

I was told May Build no firm date and a Mid June Delve but no exact date promised. So I assume Late June early July if its anything like the equipment I buy they are always later than originally quoted
They did have a April build on Coupe

How many 997 Turbo S's are they planning on making? I seriously wonder what the demand will be for such a vehicle.
No doubt, it's a loaded package and at almost 200K USD base for the coupe, it BETTER have "many of the options from the standard 911 Turbo available as part of the list price".
And about that 19% VAT in Germany...
Averaging 24 mpg is impressive with PDK and DI with crazy fast acceleration numbers.
I sure hope Porsche doesn't go the route of Ferrari... you can't get a manual gearbox in the 458.

PCCB is questionable in winter
i have a friend with some bad realiability experience of PCCB in winter
he replaced PCCB for standard brakes finally
you can chip tune and install sport cats in 997.2 TT PDK for 550-580 ps

I have PCCB on my winter vehicle "Cayenne TT S" no issues on the road, they are superb in the snow and rain as well....the only time the get a spongy feel is when exiting a highpower car wash and that is quickly resolved.

Gj325: since you asked...Exterior is black; interior is natural brown leather which is the same combination on my 2008 turbo. The car from an appearance standpoint is an identical twin to the 2008. Major options include all offered leather pieces and trim (excluding speaker covers), dash vents in black to correspond to the exterior paint as are the headlight washers and rear lid logo. Heated seats and steering wheel, Porsche crests in headrests and on center console lid and aluminum footrest. The illuminated stainless door sills are not presently available to order (will add these through parts when they are released in July) and I am debating on the color of the instrument dials. The only taste I have is bad (coupled with absolutely no sense of color); if you have any suggestions re dial colors, they would be appreciated. My color decisions are predicated on combinations in nature...thus the black and braun which mirror my Rotts.
That's about it.
That's about it.

As for Dials I think the Speed Yellow Looks great in a Black Car I wanted Yellow Dials but left them out didnt think they would look as good in Blue Car.
Look forward to hearing about your journey as it gets closer since you have a April build you will have your car a month sooner than my Cab.
Congrats on your choice

Hi, all. I just placed an order for a turbo s cab. Black exterior, black interior with solid black seats. Options selected are heated front seats, parking assist and XM radio. The salesman suggested adding rear center console leather ($1260 - yikes!). I see this and other leather upgrades in the options list - that are ridiculously expensive. I have not seen the leather upgrades, however, so cannot decide whether to spring for any. Are the upgrades worthwhile - enjoyable enough to see, smell or feel, to justify that kind of cost?
