Congrats! It sounds like you're building the same specs as my X5 M. The wait will be difficult, but well worth it!

WCH · 01-26-2016, 02:26 PM

Congrats! Excellent build. I have DG with Aragon. Great deal.

Troy172416 · 01-26-2016, 08:05 PM

Just got mine with the same combo and I can tell you it is great. Everyplace I park it people comment on it. Enjoy it when you get it.

Vassilis1971 · 01-26-2016, 10:24 PM

Very nice combo! Total beast machine.

The wait till the breakin-in procedure will be done will be even more difficult...

PS: great shots on the snow! Thanks Mike!

AlexLou1222 · 01-28-2016, 06:32 PM

Agree the wait during the break-in is pure torture!

critical_mass · 01-28-2016, 07:04 PM

Goes into production week 7! Pretty quick!

elisiX · 01-29-2016, 04:40 AM

Congrats! Popular combination for a reason!

JC8233 · 01-29-2016, 08:15 AM

Congrats, nice build. What wheels did you choose?

WCH · 01-29-2016, 03:13 PM

Just noticed that we are running similar garages!

Fantastic ride!

WCH · 01-29-2016, 05:48 PM

A GTS is awesome too. I was going to get a GTS but the dealer got the TT close enough to make the jump.

Omar@VelosDesignwerks · 02-03-2016, 10:40 AM

Congrats love the color!

TT is a beast. Best bang for the buck supercar. But I'm not just a turbo fan when it comes to sports cars. I love the howl of the boxer-6. That's why I'll never buy the new 991.2 I have my manual transmission, RWD, NA 991 GTS and I'm keeping for the next 30 odd years

WCH · 02-03-2016, 12:31 PM

You are right. There is something special about a NA boxer six both in sound and linearity. The lack of sound is the only thing I don't love about the TT. But then I push the accelerator and somehow it doesn't seem so bad.

JNoSol · 02-03-2016, 07:59 PM

Congrats... Great choice.

Did you powdercoat the wheels? Looks nice.
