Default On my second week with baby - first time poster

OK, so i have been trying to read EVERYTHING so I don't sound totally stupid when I post.

I have a ton of questions but will sneak them in slowly. First I have to tell you how much many of you will hate me. I now realize how lucky I am...

I wanted a tt when they first came out but wanted to wait until I saw one. Then I found out there was going to be a roadster - had to wait.

Then I found out there was a 225 - had to wait.

Then I found out there is a 6 mo waiting list.. crap.

So a couple of weekends ago I go to the dealer and say, ok, fine, I'll take one but I want green/green with everything except nav...is there anyway I can finance the 5k down? no.

On a lark, I was surfing my credit union website that night to see if they can do it.
They have a page where you say what you are looking for. I type in the car, color, options... 1 day later I got an email from University (seattle) audi saying "I have the exact car you are looking for sitting right here - someone who pre-ordered cancelled".

1 day later I had it in my driveway.. this is sooooo coool.

Default I had to wait a bit but I love to hear stories of instant gratification

I guess you can still say you had instant gratification considering your waiting was self-inflicted in my mind.

Have fun! Post some pixs!!!

Absolutely. Looking forward to it.

You and I actually exchanged posts on the Seattle Audi site re: performance driving.

Looking forward to any opportunity to test this baby out!

Default How often do you guys make it East

I'm in Spokane and there's not much TT activity over here. Would love a chance to take it out with a group of fellow owners. Do you guys ever take trips East? If so, let me know, I'd be willing to drive a bit to meet up.
