Well, after 6 months and some very annoying transmission problems, the S4 is history. Took delivery of this very nice 2008 TT 3.2 s-line roadster yesterday, and I have to tell you, having a cab again is just a blast. It's no Porsche, but for a daily commuter, it's just plain fun. Car's quick, with a nice exhaust note, optioned fully, and the damn 19"s are bigger than those on the C4S! Came through with Pilot Sports, too!! Now, THIS one I'll drive!! Even my wife loves it! Except when she saw the size of the trunk, she commented that even grocery bags won't fit. I said, "That's the idea, isn't it??" She's not talking to me much today.

Nice TT. I guess the C4S is now the grocery hauler!
If you want to drive you have the car already! Are you thinking like maybe 5000 miles a year or something? I imagine it would remind me of my boxster and those are all good memories. Have fun and stay married.
Cool beans. I dig the wheels.

Honestly, I would have bought a Boxster, but because of the issues involved with the tradeback of the S4, Audi of America 'urged' me to stay with Audi - with a nudge from a very nice incentive check.
Congrats on the demise of the lemon and welcome to the TT. Glad to hear that the transaction went smoothly! Now go out and drive the C4S as it's a beautiful day.
Yea Phil. Congrats on the Audi. Now you'll be faced with a real choice...which one will I drive today??

Too busy driving the TT! I hope the thing isn't too much fun, or we're looking at another sulfated battery.
Congrats on the purchase. Looks like a fun drive!
Cool TT Phil.
Awright, you've had it for almost two days now. What're you gonna get next?
Congratulations, and welcome to the Audi TT fraternity. Mine is a daily driver and has served me well, with performance that is not what I would call "high performance sports car performance," but is nevertheless quite satisfactory. Good luck with yours, Phil...it's beautiful.
Thanks everyone for their compliments. As VGM911 implies - it's no Porsche, but a really fun, neat car for daily drives. And it really is nice looking in a strange way. The 19"s and RS4 type rims really do work well with the car. The silver I think is a good choice. Especially for an "older" guy like me!!
The new TT IS a fantastic car. The new platform / chassis is much improved over the last version. Enjoy it...it is a great car and with the 3.2 an awesome drivetrain. C.
Congrats on the new toy and I love the RS4 rims. Honestly though, I can't understand how you could walk past the 911 and get into the Audi. It's all I can do to keep from putting 15K/ year on mine.
Great car! Now you have 2 AWD sports cars. Lucky you! J
Congratulations! A 2001 tt roadster is what got me started on this crazy hobbie. . .
My last car was an 02 Audi TT 225, and I referred to it as a poor man's Porsche. It served me well for 4 years, but I love my 996 in comparison.
Phil, Congrats on getting the TT! She certainly is a Beauty.
That car looks like a lot of fun! Enjoy it!
What -- no R8? Looks great, and yeah, the VR6 has a great unique sound, but I also love the 2.0T in my A3. I assume yours is Quattro? I was looking at the Eos and 135 Cab a while back cuz wifey would need a 4-seater for the kids.

Dealer has a Mugello Blue R8 with a cinnamon interior. Very Italian looking combo and a really nice car. But, at $137K, I'd rather have a Porsche, but that R8 is awfully nice. Yes, my TTR is a 3.2 with quattro and short throw six speed - great car to drive. I've had two convertibles previous to this car - a '68 Pontiac GTO and a '71 Triumph TR4A IRS. I forgot how much fun these cars are. Even the commute home was a blast.

Thanks Tim. Only a matter of time till you're back in the saddle of another P-car.
My last car was a previous generation TT coupe. Not the fastest car but it might have been the prettiest. I enjoyed it thoroughly.
