My lowly C4 gets left out in the boonies (I can use the exercise), but we probably have more room in Iowa.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

25 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I was coming back from racquetball and a dude was standing at my car checkin' it out. I walked up and he was like, "dude, is this your car?" I said "ya, whats up?" He said something like, what an amazing car, I NEVER see Turbo's. He was taken by it, for sure. He told me it was one of his favorite cars. He asked me a few questions about how it drove, how fast it was, you know, standard fare. We rapped for another few minutes. Then he said, do you mind if I take some pics for my exotic car website? I was like cool, no prob. He took a few pics and I said, gotta run, but here's my email, send me the pics. Got home, had dinner then checked my email and to my surprise, he had taken a vid of me takin off. I had NO idea. Hah! He didn't send me the link in the email but I requested it when I thanked him. I'll post it in this thread when he responds. Made me realize, I gotta get some vids!!! Video: http://law.wustl.edu/Gant/911TT.MPG Update, just got his email response: http://www.exoticsonroad.com/

POST 2Original post

Gant, do they make PSE for the 996TT? You need one if they do. You should hear a PSE take off!! Nice Looking Ride!!

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I've thought long and hard about getting exhaust. Remember, the 1st C4S I got that was a flood car, had the PSE, I LOVED IT! and thanks for the compliment!

POST 4Original post

Wow, horrible parking spot! My lowly C4 gets left out in the boonies (I can use the exercise), but we probably have more room in Iowa.

The thin layer of dust makes the scene look pretty cool as you take off. -td

POST 6Original post

No doubt I'd love to have a black TT. Yours would do just fine for me I must say that the one thing missing on an otherwise fine machine is the sound to match it. As is the case for my N/A 996 (working on it ). Porsche fell WAY short in the exhaust note of non PSE 996's. They could have and should do something, anything and still stay within noise restrictions. The stock sound is a complete disappointment from the fist time I heard it a few years back. I was at a dealer when he started a 40th anniversary model for me. Man that sounded like crap, for sure not high end sports car. He gave it some gas and my disappointment was complete. What kind of enthusiast in the market for an exotic/high end sports car wants a quiet non-refined VW like muffler sound? If the PSE sound option is a ten, then a 6 or so for the standard would have been more worthy of a 911. At best I would give it a 2 Anyways...your TT is hot ArrOgant. Be careful in those parking lots, some crazy drivers speed right through them

POST 7Original post

nice campus. bldgs are beautiful. and good thing he really has some exotics on his site - i'm feeling that murcielago.

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 5250974

Ya, it IS a good thing he really has some exotics on his site and not just 911 Turbo's..

POST 9Original post

cuz then if it were only 911s, then it'd be like checking out the wholefoods parking lot here in bellevue, wa full of other common german cars like your merc amgs, audis, bimmers. wholefoods does sell some exotic fruits tho

Quotes source post: 5251302

Haaa! Cool video, who needs a killer exhaust sound - I think the engine sound makes up for that in spades! Good thing he has exotic cars on his site, could have been a local NAMBLA chapter!

POST 12 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 5251938

I agree about the sound of the engine, but the PSE is awesome and you can turn it off when you want. Definitely a great option.

POST 14Original post

nice site - great pix/vid. I notice that he didn't blur out your Plate number. Maybe its just me but you took the time to do yourself on your avatar Just a thought

POST 15Original post

^^^ I've never understood why someone would feel the need to blur out their license plate number when putting a picture of a car on the Internet. If you're worried about people knowing your plate number, you best just leave the car in the garage 24/7.

POST 16Original post

Quotes source post: 5257707

I've made this argument numerous times.

POST 17Original post

Quotes source post: 5258003

A better question is...what do you think made Phil so paranoid?

POST 18Original post

Quotes source post: 5258035

Right. Never having your Porsche leave the garage is the best way for you to avoid having your license plate seen.

POST 19Original post

Someone shot a video of me leaving the local weekend Cars & Coffee gathering in Irvine, CA in my Ferrari. I wasn't even aware of it until my friend noticed it and sent it to me, thought it was the funniest thing. Need to go to 4:57 part of the video to see. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=079KHz5-fME

POST 20 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Ya, i'm not really worried @ it. Thanks for the compliments

POST 21Original post

Quotes source post: 5258324

Loved it! That yellow Ferrari sounded kind of rough, maybe operator error or the recording. Different story on yours, no better sound than that, MUSICA PRIMAVERA!! That Maserati had it going on as well...same for the Lambo. Italianos what else can I say. I am a bit jealous by the way. What a way to drink coffee

POST 22Original post

Quotes source post: 5258653

Yeah, the yellow Ferrari was suffering the classic symptom of the super sensitive ferrari drive by wire system. By no means that it is bad in any way, in matter of fact I love it. It is at least 3 times faster than Porsche's drive by wire and engine revs like nothing else in this world. Faster than any porsche with any LWF I have driven. If you have played the PS2 GT game, that's how a Ferrari motor revs. So if there are just some rocking motion or jerky motion with the gas pedal and frequency actually gets amplified from the gas pedal to the throttle body, that was the effect of it you heard on the yellow ferrari. If you kept your foot down the sin wave of the frequency gets bigger and bigger. I try to visit cars and coffee about 4 times a year, that place is amazing packed with awesome cars which makes my f-car look like a beater car. Noticed that I was hiding my face when I was exiting the parking lot. LOL!

POST 23Original post

I did notice you hiding your face, hopefully nobody saw you driving that beater Awesome cars indeed, like that MB SLR or Porsche GT....poor bastards. Interesting on that drive by wire effect, must be fun to learn how to be smooth in it. I'll have top stick to the PS2 for now Unless, that is, you are open to a partial trade. I am talking about a very rare black/black 996 Aero w/13K miles, WOW!!! No misprints Robin. Its practically calling your name, can you hear it? No more hiding from cameras! Think about it�but don't screw around and make me wait too long, I might change my mind, not sure if I can hang being seen in that F-car. As a matter of fact, now that I think about it, forget it. I've canged my mind, sorry to lead you on :

Dude.....................I was mearsuring the ground clearance on an 08 TT and it was but 4" at bottom of front spoiler.......how did you clear that curb? 2Nd Question: What's all that smoke (dust) during you acceleration??

Quotes source post: 5262666

That curb is really low. Dust was is from construction.
