Okay- I've hoped forever that someone would define the acronym 'ALMS.'

Default Okay- I've hoped forever that someone would define the acronym 'ALMS.'

But, it just keeps getting referred-to as ALMS.

Can someone help out a fellow forumer not in the know?

Default Same lame car you have, Ross. Nothing but decorative changes...remember

it's not the S-Line or an S, just some commemorative colors, interiors and wheels basically.

Default If you consider a Porsche 996 a sportscar...

Then by all means so is the TT. The TT handles as well, if not better than the 996 and will outrun both the Boxster, Boxster S and the 996 on the track. Not to say that I don't love these cars, but the TT is by all means a sportscar in the true sense of the words. Granted, it could be a bit lighter and quicker out of the box, but then what would we have to talk about!
