Mid year I will probably be making a purchase. I was set on a 135 for a long time, but I want to consider all my options. What do you guys think of this? Any other suggestions? I can't go with a 2 seater.

well r you looking for performance and tuning possibilities? because AUDI has nothing for those 3.2. 2.0T can be moded and made much much faster then a 3.2. I like the TT in general tho and I would definitelly drive one

GIBSON6594

I'm not much of a modder

i love this.

what are your primary needs? TT is an very impractical car...

charliemike

I think it's a great looking car.

You'd think they'd bother to clean the car first though.

GIBSON6594

I don't really need practical. I am single, no kids. I only drive really on the weekends. Not a homeowner. I need four seats because i do sometimes drive others around, but not all the time. I just want something fun to drive around in on weekends when I run errands and go out at night.

I thought TT was 2 seater?

GIBSON6594

well if you don't care about the modding then I say go for it. Even without modding this car its still quick and a really nice car. All the bitches will be all over you haha how about the a5 tho. I don't even know what those go for in US

iTimmy

You may want to seriously consider a MkV R32, essentially it is a TT in VW trim/body and is more practical, cheaper and if the previous generation R32 to is any indication of resale value will be a great car to own. I've seen 08 TT's with low miles as low as the high 20's, I know it depends how they are equipped. The rear seats of the TT are nearly useless, they can hold stuff, but for anything longer then a few miles are not at all comfortable for people over 100lbs.

GIBSON6594

Thanks for the sugg., but i don't really like the looks of the R32.

I like the new TT, much better than the bulbous old one but I've never driven one.

Do you like the G8 in GT or GXP trim?

just get a brand new GTI and call it a day. it's like 22K loaded. lol

I think we need more criteria..... i.e. really want good gas mileage, or a luxurious interior, or a small car? Bigger car?

Sly Raskal

And the new ones are lookin' really good too! I'd get the GTI 4-door.

Brandon24pdx

Just get the 135i then. Those are pretty dope. Plently practical for DDing around too, and plenty of opportunities for extremely low mile 08's because of all the fanboys and spoiled college kids who couldn't really afford one

If you are going to get a TT....I'd get the 2.0T over the 3.2.

GIBSON6594

I love it, but it's not my kind of car

GIBSON6594

I want luxury, hence the interest in BMW and Audi.

I like Small cars. 3 series is the biggest I would go. TL, G35 sedan's, things like that are too big IMO.

GIBSON6594

Yea, but i don't mod my cars really

GIBSON6594

Also, it looks like you can't get the 2.0 in a 6 speed.

Sly Raskal

Sounds like you'd love the A3. I am still in love with the A3 even after picking up an A4 Avant. it's nice they finally added the 2.0T with quattro on the A3. it's unfortunate you can't get it in manual though. they just can't get it right!!!!

GIBSON6594

It don't like hatchbacks at all.

Yea, car needs to be a manual.

Sly Raskal

iTrader: (1)

BOOOOOO! See if I help you anymore!

You redeemed yourself with that statement.

iTimmy

Sounds like you already made up your mind

GIBSON6594

in a way. The TT really interests me, but so does the 135. Kinda a tough decision.

I've owned an Audi before and the reliability was terrible?? Can anyone comment on the TT's reliability?

Sly Raskal

iTrader: (1)

I'll be honest, someone I know here at work has the last gen TT and he complains about the reliability of his TT a lot, but like i've told a lot of people. Reliability of Audi's newer models has improved a lot! So since this is a 2008, you may have a good experience.

What I'd recommend is create an account at audizine.com or audiworld.com and ask guys over there what they think.

Moog-Type-S

Then why are you looking at a TT?

...last I checked it had a hatch...not a trunk.

Sly Raskal

iTrader: (1)

My guess is he meant "wagon" which is why I took serious offense to his derogatory comment.

Mods, go do your thing!!!

charliemike

I think he's talking about the boxy type of Hatchback.

Costco

That's always bothered me. I guess the body style is still considered a hatchback but what he probably prefers is a coupe instead of a boxy hatchback.

Costco

screw you.

and you too

Moog-Type-S

hatch is a hatch.
trunk is a trunk.

GIBSON6594

I was thinking hatchback, but meant wagon

Sly Raskal

iTrader: (1)

whoa whoa whoa. Who was talking to you!

GIBSON6594

My bad sly, I did mean wagon

Sly Raskal

iTrader: (1)

It's a good thing I didn't recommend the MazdaSpeed3 earlier.

Sly Raskal

iTrader: (1)

No worries dude, just having some fun while helping you out.

Would you prefer a coupe over a sedan?

Costco

two people posted the exact thing I did.... juuuuust before I did. that always bugs me
