Im sure GM#1 will ruin this thread as well. Is there anyway to get rid of him? he is obviously too childish for this website, as I have been observing this site for the past year I have noticed a steady decline in the general intellect in most comments, if anything just ignore his attempt to compare a G6 to the new TT.

Nice pricing for a nice car. Good job Audi.

hahaha finally dav1dtt someone preempting GM’s retarded strike.
The new TT is beautiful, im glad its affordable as well.

For that much they should sell. Major exotic looks at Explorer / Tahoe (used only as an expression of average) prices. The old models a pretty popular here in Scottsdale.

TT’s are for housewives who deserve more than a VW.

Is the TT a 350Z competitor? I don’t know much about this segment.

I think the 350Z is a faster auto and less costly. You pay a premium for the Audi symbol on the car. This is a wife car – my wife likes it.

LOL Retarded strike… I like that. I used to own an A3 and im very impressed w/ Audi. The new TT is a bit more masculine than the previous gen. I am sure it will attract more men to the model. Im a 26 yo male and own a M roadster. Even though i own a convertible i will not deny the stigma of it being a womens car. I find that the majority of convertible owners are women or older men. I dont see many guys my age driving around in them. Not sure why i love it! I must have at least one convertible in my garage at all times! Unless im currently driving it!

It’s already got strikes against it, it’s:

- Overpriced
- ugly
- German
- unreliable
- competing with the hot selling new Solstice and Saturn Sky

The last one was a flop, and the new one is going to get its ass handed to it by GM. Odds are not looking too good for this latest Vdub.

2.0T is FWD only again?! Groan. Everything else is near perfect.

Id hardly call the mk1 TT a flop, there common as muck over here! IMHO German is a massive plus point. I would never consider buying American, but would always consider German.

DOn’t know where you are minione2006, but here in the US, VW and Audi are in the toilet and the TT is plagued with reliability issues and quality glitches.

“I would never consider buying American, but would always consider German.”

You must not be from America then. This is GM country and German imports are trash.

Sure is a lot of ignorance in the world huh?

stop spreading your idiotic lies GM the only one in the tank here is GM ford and Chrysler. VW Audi, BMW, Toyota, Porsche report record sales and profits. Your tails are cheap, sell em somewhere else.

If the individual that “controls” what is posted on this site had the balls to block/drop “GM”, it would sure be appreciated. Enough of the childish BS.

GMnumberone4ever is only doing harm to GM’s reputation… GM has been making a nice comeback as of late, and my respect for the company has slighty grown since what it was a few years ago, but the ridiculous comments this guy makes are the epitomy of the stereotypical American ‘Hoorah’ customer… He’s exactly what GM wants to get away from… “We’re the best just because we’re AMERICAN” “if it ain’t Ameri-CAN, it’s ****”… “Everything that isn’t made in detroit is garbage” Just stop it, it’s a bunch of nonsense… If that was the case, American companies would not be hurting right now…

This typical mindset not only hurts GM (and other American companies) it also hurts America. Unfortunately, America has become known globally to be filled with a bunch of obnoxious, untraveled, uneducated citizens… Is that really what America is? NO! it’s not. So lets not reinforce that. GM wants to be respected globally, and of course it wants to keep its American roots, but the company is going to be influenced by other companies in order to compete with them… Do you think the solstice/sky would even be around if it wasn’t for Mazda’s Miata and Honda’s S2000? Do you think the Turbo Ecotec engine would be around if other companies such as Mitsubishi (DSM’s) or Subaru hadn’t had great success with their 2 liter turbo engines? Do you think GM would be reinforcing its high MPG if it wasn’t for foreign companies? Just learn to respect what other companies have to offer, even if you wont buy it.

nice car, wasnt a big fan of the TT until it was redesigned. the 3.2 is a beast…pretty good pricing too

Nice cheerleading speech Chauncy. Spoken like a true import humper. What you fail to mention, or in fact twist around is GM is the one leading those so called “competitors” to water. Sorry my friend. GM is leading the way in all markets with products like the CTS, Malibu, G6, Aura, Sky, Solstice, STS and V-series. GM leads in trucks, in SUV’s and in crossovers. They are going triunce Toyota in the hybrid market for 2007 and they are going to beat the world to the hydrogen market soon after. What kind of brand do you think has the talent to build the successful HUMMER brand? Do you really think that anyone besides GM could come up with the awesome and highly successful new GMT900’s?

You sound as ignorant as the rest of the import crunchers out there. If you don;t like GM, then you probably shouldn’t be reading car sites because obviously you are not an enthusiast. Preach somewhere else.

im sorry the 3.2 is NOT a beast. even the sky redline has more power =/ there are so many choices of coupes/roadsters in this price category…

I figured out why there will be no Audi TT Shooting Brake. It would overlap the upcoming Volkswagen Sirocco. Gosh dang I am such a clever boy.

Aw shucks. I see that Niapolley posted the same thing. Damn.

$37k for a FWD roadster? Just get an S2000.

Look who’s talking Garbage Motors.. You sure do sound insecure. Have you been brain washed? are you the Taliban of GM?

GM#1FOREVER is a retard. First of all German cars are WAY more reliable than american cars. Secondly, the solstice and the sky go 0-60 in 7 seconds and the TT goes 0-60 in about 5, so theres no competing there. And the interior in the sky and solstice is no where near the quality of the TT’s. So shut the hell up, but keep on commenting because its fun trashing whatever you say.

Everybody here appreciates all sorts of cars from around the world. We give credit to where credit is due. However, you MS. GM are soooo bias; did your daddy do the Boom Boom with your mommy on the assembly line? Is that why you live for GM? Do you have the GM brand on your ass? Does your birth certificate have a vine number on it? All I am saying is that its good you appreciate GM, but you do need to realize others do make better cars. Just because you can’t afford better cars doesn’t mean there aren’t any… so why don’t you keep your comments to your self? Everybody has said something about your ignorance.

I agree. I look forward to reading his moronic postings just to drop in on it. I have a suggestion tho GM. More stories w/ fire! Like that one time you drove your mom to the store and from what you told me her fat ass broke the axle on your ponticrap G6 causing it burst in flames. (cause the broken axle has alot to do w/ fire) Happy to hear you made it out ok. And to think you went rite back out and bought another one. Good for you! Keep up the retarded work.

GMnumberone4ever, I was going to reply to your comment but it looks like everyone took the words right out of my mouth… but I will admit GM does dominate in trucks. They’re big, powerful and do their job. But they did kinda screw up the styling IMO with that last one… the Avalanche was it’s name?

MS. GM stop talking, you are embarrassing your self and the country.

MS. GM must be out of school, she usually does stop commenting about this time of day.

For those of you new to the site just pay no attention to GM; he only posts to tick people off. You take away his power by ignoring him.

$34800 in US? It’s $95000 here for the same exact car!

GM LOST $10,500,000,000 worldwide in 2006 while the VW company made a profit of over $1,000,000,000. Enough said?

Beautiful. Anyone know if DSG is available? And what’s the weight?

moogleii — DSG is available, it has been renamed S-tronic.

Honestly I think I enjoy reading GMnumber14evers posts simply because I get to laugh out loud every day. The rest of the people on this forum obviously like cars, and respect a car when it is good, regardless of where it is made or what badge is on it. This guy is either pulling a long running practical joke or is the most ignorant human being born. Either way I am going to enjoy my laughs.

GMnumber04ever if your a true GM fanatic you would admit to GM’s flops, rather than blaming the Germans and Japanese for everything, the TT is a car that has a better record of reliability than a lot of GM’s. Im a huge DCX person yet im able to admit to the flaws in a lot of the car they have, but hell that isn’t going to stop me from liking the company. So, all I have got to say is your GMnumber1posser. And for the rest who care, I’m sure this car will be a hit for Audi, they won’t let this car flop.

I personally have never been a fan of the Audi TT in any form. Their other models are vastly superior overall.

The new headlights and grill are finally growing on me. The original was a better design, but if you like something more aggressive, this is still a good looking car. For the price I’d go with the Lotus Elise, a much cooler sports car.

–> I also find the GM comments hilarious. Why bother responding? Write a meaningful comment instead.

GM is hilarious….does he not realize that GM is now using all of its foreign GERMAN models for Saturn and has turned to Australia for the Camero and next Pontiacs??? I love the new TT. I was worried origianally how they would redo it, but I am glad to see it is a job well done.

I like the new design, TT’s arn’t the best in the world but i like em

Yeah the 2.0t needs quattro, thats my only gripe

TT roadster: chick car
TT coupe: guys car

The old TT looked great, but I could never get past the idea that you could buy a Golf with the same drivetrain, more space and better build quality for less and you wouldn’t look like a hairdresser. It was a little too much style over substance for me.

For me the new coupe model was a disappointment as it moved toward a more traditional coupe style, with a proportionally longer bonnet, at least the convertible hides this to some degree.

Do you guys seriously not realize that GM#1 is just a troll stirring up anti-GM sentiments? And that all of you fall for it in every single thread?

The TT is a very successful car, not the flop that some of you guys partray it as. It’s styling was so avantegarde and the baseball glove interior were classic touches that the competition was scrambling to match. Sure, in the comparos, it got low marks for it’s front heavy handling, and the performance was more “boulevard cruiser” than “backroads bruiser” but the styling and quality were unbeatable.

Ricardo Head, ^^^ congratulations on coming out of the closet.

Jon.

I commend you deantj, we sure are, add yourself to that list. I also agree GM#1 is invaluable, because look at him creating anti GM comments, I love it! People are finally speaking the truth! The way to get…people…to finally insult low quality products…is…to…I’VE GOT IT, GIVE THEM PRAISE! A perfect formula.

As for the new TT, well I love the old TT, it’s gorgeous, I’ve gotten to drive it quite a bit and I really enjoy doing so, people say it’s not sporty enough blahhhhblahblahblah but that only is apparent when driving a Boxster, S2000, and TT back to back. Maybe compared to those 2 it is, but if you happen to drive one on its own, it’s really quite enjoyable. I think the new TT is a good evolutionary design, while the first was clearly revolutionary. I’d consider buying one if I was in the market for such a vehicle.

deantj: I think Ricardo Head could be added to that list, really he’s on here quite a bit as well.

If you are considering the 3.2 TT for $45,000, do yourself a favor and get a Porsche Boxster…the TT is for your wife to drive.

Not true, anderson, stop stereotyping and don’t be a tool. The TT is plenty fun to drive, if you’re not secure enough with your sexuality to see that then you’ve got bigger issues to deal with

^^^Second that…I can’t take anyone seriously who calls a perfectly good car a ‘girl’s car’. People say that about the Miata all the time, then they get assraped by one on the autocross course.

Debatable whether a Boxter would be a better deal…pricewise, you’d be talking base Boxter vs. the 3.2 TT. Boxter would likely have the sharper reflexes but that’s about it….TT would be better looking, more comfortable, better ergonomically and better appointed. Additionally, the new model isn’t exactly a dynamic sloth either. Boxter would be the more hardcore car, but let’s face it – beneath those ‘hard core’ Porsche bodies everywhere most of them are tiptronics!

You could do up a Boxter to be as nice as the TT but you’d end up in another price bracket altogether.

I’d take an S2000 over a TT any day…or at least I would have until I read about the ABT supercharger kits for the new TT (ABT TT-R).

Lamborghini…I don’t think many men are secure enough to run around in public wearing a bra and panties…in other words, real men don’t drive Audi TTs. Maybe a better car for you would be a Volkswagen Beetle with a beautiful sun flower on the dash…pretty boy!
