Thanks everyone for the replies...

Roybotnik - PM sent

German_Saint - thanks for the heads-up on the clear bra. Any thoughts on someone in Dallas?

CBwell - I actually live in Dallas. Went to school in Austin at UT, so I go back there a couple times a year...Hook'em Horns!

ECS Tuning - thanks for the tip =)

^By the way, a good friend of mine wanted a Cobalt Blue 997TT Cab MT. He was in love with that color...and we looked for 2 years and the closest we came was a 997TT.1 Coupe Cobalt Blue for sale in Ohio (nice nice low mileage car but not a cab)...so he gave up and bought a silver TT...My dealer friend claims that there were less than 5 Cabs produced in this color.

You should ask Porsche to give you the build quantity and I am sure that it will be a very very low figure!

I am SO jealous. I looked for a Cobalt TT for 6 mos, and gave up finding the right combo. Love it. Very nice!

Congrats have a soft spot for cobalt as it was the color of my previous (and first ever) 911.

Oh yeah - just a 'heads-up' on those beautiful painted seat backs. The wind deflector screen if you install it, and don't have your seats far enough forward, can cause it to rub and damage the seat backs. Mine we're rubbed and I had them re-painted. I watch it now VERY carefully and may have some 3M clear put on them to protect. Watch it with passengers, cleaners etc... who may move the seats back. They're beautiful and SO nice but prone to scrapes.

Excellent. I swear I've driven mine over the last 11 months more withi the top down than up. And it gets a bit rainy up here. Love the car.
