Taking the wife and daughter out this weekend on a test drive marathon. Let you know how it turns out.

In general, Audis are ranked pretty high by J.D. Power for reliability, where VWs are not. Even the best automakers experience reliability issues--it's too bad you have bought one of those cars.

BTW...what are some opinions of the Audi standard audio system vs. the Bose package on the TT?
Thanks,

I was hoping it was a lighter, more metalic blue.
if you go to www.auditt.org and click on the photo galleries, there's a couple pictures of a coupe in blue. it's nice.
have you started the purchasing process? has your dealer told you when the 2002s will be available?
I came close to buying a 330ci, but the turbo makes the Audi feel faster around town even though it's about the same. Also, the BMW dealers were hesitant to discount, while I was a able to negotiate $3k off the price of the TT. It's only been a day, but I feel I made the right choice.
within next week or so in the Chicagoland area. Got a quote for a 2001 model from a dealer for $31,838.00 with no options, which they say is about 6 percent over their cost.
Other option is to order 2002 model which they could'nt say how much more 2002's price would be. I heard about a 3 percent increase but said they would still quote me 6 percent over their invoice. Anyone out there know if that's a fair deal or any info on 2002 prices. Would appreciate any help.............

I talked to the dealer who has not seen one or had much information. He said very preliminary he thought it was $3100 + $500 for an 'install kit' + labor for fitting. That's more than I was expecting. Anyone know of alternate sources or have other price quotes?
Thanks

Your TT has a 4 cylinder turbo (but it's a single turbo), the 2.7T is a V6 with twin turbos.
Your grammar is not as flawless as you'd like to believe.
And yes, I forgot about the Allroad. I apologize - you are much smarter than me, thank you for showing me how stupid I am. Feel better now?

i've read a few posts about 2002 pricing on audiworld...while there aren't many datapoints, a couple of people have paid 1.5K over invoice, which is less than what you're being quoted.
are you in the bay area? i'm not sure how rare 1000 off msrp would be up here, given the state of the local economy, but my tt hasn't arrived yet (i'm on the list for an '02), so i don't have any personal pricing insight yet.
1) did i get as good a deal as i think?
2) is it normal for the dealers to drive around in these vehicles and then sell them as new? what should i make of this?
any help on this would be appreciated.
Okay, here's the deal. I just went to my first dealer yesterday. I live in Southern California. They wanted $38,375 for a 2002 TT roadster, 180 hp, with baseball leather and power top. They told me there was absolutely no negotiation.
Well... ahem. Everybody on this board seems to have paid a lot less for the '01 models. Is this typical for a new '02? What should I do? I haven't called around yet or gotten very many bids online. I intend to do this but would appreciate any input on this dealer's offer.
Oh yeah, one more thing. When I went into the dealership they initially refused to let me drive a TT. They said I had to commit that it was the perfect color first, and work out payments. They said no one wants to buy this type of car with mileage on it, and this was their reasoning.
I won't say what I said, but needless to say, I drove the car without doing anything above, and loved it. I just wondered if anyone else has heard of a dealer doing this? Is this common at a Porsche dealership, for example? BTW, I am a woman.

Many years ago I bougth I bougth a Tbird, it was in the showroom, the salesman was some kind of middle easterner, probably Iranian, I could not understand him well, but he soon realized I was not aware the car had three thousand plus miles, I took it home with me and soon realized the milleage, I went back to the dealer and no dice, they said I knew it was the "Managers" car and the sale is final, if I had known the miles I would not have agreed to the price, because of that I am such an acute odometer reader now that by instinct that is the first thing I look in a new car.
I learned a good leason the best way.
Thanks guys and gals

Based on the current models, I'd go with the TT just b/c it's the new kid on the block and so attractive. TT also has a decent sized trunk for short trips whereas the Z3's trunk is a little small. The Z3 drives better though b/c of the TT's turbo lag. Last, an all new Z3 is coming out next year. If you can wait, might want to see what the new Z3 offers.
the TT is awesome.
