Olli,

Here are more of mine. Not great shots as I took them about a year and half ago. I recently Zaino'd it after the drive to San Diego. I will try to take more this weekend.

Matt,

Do you have the polished rims from the TTS? They look great. I like the Ocean Blue (?) on the TT. Great car!

No, I dont think so. As far as I know they are the original TT rims. Your's is pretty damn sweet looking too. I like the silver, it looks awesome.

Thanks Matt! The reason for having missed your early posts is that I had not been a member of this forum then yet. The car is gorgeous and looks well looked after! I noticed AlxAMG complimented the rear end. I couldn't agree more. There isn't a sexier a$$ in the community of cars than that of a 993TT

Thanks Derick!

I don't think there can be a "not a great shot" of a 993TT. You are one lucky guy to have this fantastic looking car plus the 2 classic Mercedes cars That's a perfect combination and a garage certain to be the envy of many (me included). I like those prominent big reds showing there (as in Matt's car as well) and looking forward to more pictures as you have taken them! Are your big reds 4 or 6 piston?

Re: 993 TT mpg

The best I've gotten so far in my STi is 27 on the highway, but I still have really low mileage for my engine.

That is a good question...I think they are four piston, which I believe are standard Brembos for the TT. I had the fronts replaced by Viper Bob when he was at Devek in Redwood City --- not cheap!

Thanks Yeah, I know, nothing is cheap with these cars...but it's all worth it, over and over again.
