2009 Audi TT 2.0T quattro with S tronic

Pros

Extremely solid feel for a small sports car.

Cons

Back seat is a joke

Purchased As New

It's a sports car, not a racer (Although I understand it can be turned into one fairly easily). It does what it's supposed to and does it very well. Handling is tight and solid. Suspension is firm but not jolting like some sports cars I've owned. The mostly useless back seats fold down to give you a large trunk area capable of handling two golf bags and then some. (I had an MX5 where my clubs had to ride in the passenger seat.)

The surprising thing is I get more comments on this car than I did on my Corvette (02 coupe) and they're mostly from women. Anything that makes girls in their late teens or early twentys initiate a conversation with a senior citizen has something going for it....read morehide

Pros

Stunning design inside & out/ superior handling vs previous TT/ daily driver useful in snow

Cons

low on power/ poor reliability especially w/ electronic items/ trans issues/ brakes replaced

Purchased As New

Having driven the previous version of the TT, I can honestly say this generation is superior in almost every way. The way it drives is excellent. Steering feel is second to none and the same for the brakes, when they are working that is. The engine is eager to rev but lacks power on the highway. With 4 passengers and a full tank of gas, the little engine struggles to keep up with highway traffic. That being said, the biggest issue I have with my 2009 model, now 4 months old is reliability. Within the first month, the power window regulator burned out, the climate controls were replaced and the central locking locked me out and would not open with the remote. The transmission was reprogrammed because it was shifting very rough. It felt like it was slipping and the dealer replaced the whole unit with no question. On the 4th month, the right front rotor became warpped. Both rotors were replaced due to wear issues.

In all I like the car and the way it looks. It is easy to drive and can be used as a daily driver. With all the problems I have had though I would like to trade it in for something reliable and would not recommend this car. Good Luck...read morehide

Pros

Amazing car. It will do 29 miles to the gallon depending on your spend

Cons

Excellent breaks, got to watch out for holes if you take the 19' inch wheels

This is for me the greatest car I've ever had
The 2.0 TFSi does loss a little advantage on the Highway after you past 90 miles per hour because of the 4 cylinder engine but comes in handy in cities.
I recommend to do a ECU Tuning chip performence which will give you an extra 50 horsepower and 70 pounds of torque which will make your car more powerful then the 3.2L V6 and save you around 7,000 dollars....read morehide

Pros

Very solid feel and comfortable ride for a small sports car.

Cons

Paddle shifters take some getting used to.

The best feature as far as I'm concerned is that it has a flip-down back seat that gives you a very large cargo space. (Mines the hatchback) Plenty of room for a couple of golf bags or enough luggage for a long road trip.

The ride is surprising for a little sports car, especially after having a C5 Corvette and a MX5 as my last two cars. Very quiet. The Vette could deafen you over grooved pavement. Both of the last two could jar your spine on a sharp bump like uneven pavement sections....read morehide
