Default I think imola yellow is an excellent color for a TT.

Especially with the 3.2 rear wing and valance, gives it a nice contrast. Check out Steve's (driviniTT) imola yellow/blue TT coupe, link below.

BTW, nice choice on the silver/blue. I'm on my 2nd one with the same color scheme. <ul><li><a href="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/users/14718.phtml">http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/users/14718.phtml</a></li></ul>

Default Re: My 2 cents

I'm a software engineer by trade, but in my work I often cross boundaries with management, advertising, customer support, and mostly business analysis.

I do struggle with color because of my engineering side, but I'm also creative and don't like to blend in. Besides, my outgoing personality always throws people when they learn I write software.

Thanks for your professional opinion! That's what I'm looking for!

Default It's not that most are not "womanly">>

just not "girly," which earns big points in my book. =)

Nice pictures! I was actually envisioning red leather seats and door inserts to liven up the interior! I really liked the blue interior in my old one!

Default ask this guy if an imola yellow TT is a girls car>>

Marc3.2TT. review some of his pics and you'll be connvinced it's not. as a wise man once said, "after all, it is a TT!" Right Sal? Just don't dress up your foofy poodle and put it in the front seat with you, otherwise the Off Topic-ers might ream us all a new one. I'd rock the TT at just about any job except my last one, where everybody drove pick-up trucks. HAD to use the jeep there. I guess it depends on what everybody else at your level in the company drives, and will you be comfortable showing up with a bright yellow TT wearing a business suit? my opinion, get it. you will not regret it. especially with a deal like that.

Default Thanks for all the input!

The TT is going to be my daily and spirited driver, which is why I am concerned. If it was going to be a specialty car, I wouldn't care.

For my big power vehicle, I'm going to buy something that is more capable of 750-1000HP!

Some cars cool very good in yellow and some do not. Look at most of the exotic sports cars; yellow, red, and black are what they usually offer...and now the TT.

Nope! I now live in Reno, NV. A lot of truck folks here too! You should have seen how they reacted to my Ford Lightning!

"A lowered truck? How can you go offroad with that?"

Default Sorry but I just passed the first one I've seen in person a few days ago >>>

Having only seen them in photos I'd always thought "It cant really be that ugly in person. It's probably just not photogenic"

Well, now I've seen it in person.
As I've already said...Sorry.

Dan
