God i love this car!!!
Wow, I'm just now experiencing what you guys already know. I'm totally in love with my TT. It took about a month of searching, and sharing my sister's 94 Accord, but I finally found my black on black 01' 225TTQC with only 49k miles on it. Had to fly to San Diego, CA to get it, but it was so worth it. I was dissapointed when I first saw it though, after I had traveled 1300+ miles under the impression that the car was flawless. Found out it had quite a few little problems (screen missing pixel rows, volume **** kinda quirky, and needs new strut bushings), and worse is it looks like a scratch was fixed on the rear drivers side fender with a paint brush. Still, I got the car for 17k, and for that price I can totally live with those problems. Man oh man does this car drive though! It looks so hot, and I feel like there is nothing on the road that can beat it (even my friends fixed up 95' m3 cant :-P ). Its so comfortable, and I love all of the little features through out the car. Only minus is the fact that with the car off, the cigarette lighter still has juice, and I have to unplug my escort 8500 everytime I get out. Also, I'm sure the shocks are probably gone, but the car still handles like its on rails and has a better ride than my old modded integra. I just can't wait to drive it again tomorrow, and looking at it at night is awesome, with it's blackness in the dark and only the red security leds blinking in the night.
Sorry, just felt the need to say it :-). and TToro 3.2, I'll see ya at the Friday EA meet.

Hey bro...now chip the sucker and begin with engine mods.
Seriously, when I went to an aftermarket Cold Air Intake along with a chip/DV...Scwhings Boost machine and a few other odds and ends...(all under 1000.00) My little 180 felt like a rocket....I am sure your 225 would feel even better.
Glad you dig it man! Great to have another excited TT owner!

I agree, if I could only get mine out of the shop.
I picked up mine last month. 21K miles on a silver 2002. I love it, but it is currently in the shop for the third time. First time for a rough idle on cold start and a few interior fixes. Second time for a failing fuel pump. Third time for a rough idle on cold start still. Thankfully I still have a year left on the warranty. Can't wait to have it in the driveway for more than a week.
