If Looks Could Kill — Gorgeous car, lots of fun in the sun with the top down or in the snow thanks to the quatro AWD. Would have liked more perforemance bang for the $$$ - amazing handlng but short on power. Also lots of electical problems: power windows got stuck open and needed a new dashboard due to short (cover4ed by warranty). Traded it in for a new Porsche Boxster S... in hind site perhaps I shouldn't have...

Great Car For Fun Or 2nd Car — Overal all I would say this is one of my favorite cars I have owned. I'm very impressed with the handling. Power and response it has. Only downfall would be the turbo lag under 2500 rpm that's all. But the Quattro is awesome in the dry, rain or snowy roads with out fail

Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.)

My Dream Car. — Overall a nice car. With proper maintenance it will last a long time. Expect for some cheap and badly designed parts by Audi like the glove box locking system and cluster issues the car is in good shape and has made me happy since 2002 (I bought it used) and continues to do so.

Audi Ttqr — I love this car... It looks amazing, everything is polished aluminum or leather and is really quick. The downside to this car is the price for parts and labor, for example: glovebox only is 700.00. All that aside I am proud to be driving it around town. It also gets great gas mileage

Tt Fun And Exhilerating — The Audi TT convertible is a great, fun car to drive. It's turbo performance is great above 3.500 rpm, the 6 gears make it smooth & sporty suspension adds to the fun! On a sunny day, having the roof off is guaranteed to improve your mood & put a smile in your face. Engine can be thirsty if driven hard and Audi main dealers pricey for servicing but worth it to protect value.

Unique, Power When You Need It, And Just A Fun Car To Drive. — One word sums up the whole car - unique. The interior styling makes it feel far more expensive than it really is. Controls are within easy reach. The leather trim is nice, but the door handles are made out of a material that you can easily scratch. Aluminum trim a nice touch. AWD on the quattro is great when it rains, snows etc. Or just tearing up a country backroad. Although i would rather it be a manual top, the latch to release the top is right in the middle, unlike my dad's car where there are two on either side of the top which is a little hard to get to if you're my height. The turbo takes some getting used to since it spools up at around 2K, if you arent careful the 225hp it puts out will jerk you around a good bit. The transmission shifts smoothly and isnt as moody as my dad's Z3. Right now the car is averaging at 27.8MPG combined.

Handling is amazing and it drives in the snow better than almost anything else. The hatchback allows you to carry a lot more than one would expect in a sports car

Cons

not a good passenger car

Purrrfect Driving Experience — I love everything about this car except I cannot take my mother on road trips with me anymore. So, I guess I need to get a bigger car. It travels in the snow like a snow mobile. I pass up almost anything on the road during the winter months

Luxury And Sporty Awd Performance Car. — Great AWD performance car that gets good gas mileage. Heated leather seats are excellent all year round for short trips to the store or cross country. Looks good and is practical for its All Wheel Drive Quattro system and good gas mileage.

Audi Tt Quattro 225 Roadster — Great car for the money and the entertainment. this is the 3rd audi i have owned. It is also the first Quattro i have owned. I wil say that the TT Drop top is a way better built car than the Audi 90 Cabriolet i used to own. The acceleration is good. Could be a little fatser, But i spose that what chips are for. This car handles like nothing else i have ever drivin. it inspires confidence. This is not the car for someone who does not like attention. People at the gas station just stare and ask what it is. For a 12 year old car People think it is only a couple years old and cost me a fortune.....

Great gas mileage and insurance is much cheaper than expected.

Audi over-engineers their cars.  That makes it tough on the do-it-yourself types.

Still The Coolest Looking Car On The Road. — I've owned this vehicle since May 2001. I've only had three major issues (one caused by the dealership): The instrument cluster went bad and was replaced in 2008. The AC failed in 2007 and was fixed. The airbag computer module was somehow broken when being serviced a few years ago. Dealership never took responsibility, so I shelled out $900 to have it replaced elsewhere. That wasn't cool :(
