yep u r right.
audi's nav does suck.
take it from someone that owns a lexus rx300, and an audi TT:
Navigation systems are for people who are lost. If you enjoy your car, and dont mind being lost in your TT, you dont need a nav system.

You still don't get it do you . . .
I've been sitting here reading all your posts, and looking at all your jd powers propoganda, and you still don't get it do you.
The next time I look at one of those surveys of car buyers and put any stock in it will be the first. Before I bought the TT, I was tooling around in a 92 toyota pickup. Why? I could afford something better, but there wasn't anything that elicited the kind of response necessary to get me into a dealership to drop some serious cash on a 'A to B' ride.
The TT was inspiring, fresh, and intriguing. I put my money down and waited a year for the car to arrive. In that year, I read all the trials and tribulations the first press of the car was going through thanks to this forum. I learned what was good, not so good, and worse. I knew ownership wouldn't be easy, as there were problems, but it didn't stop me. Now I still have the truck for my A to B life, but when it comes to A to ???, the TT shines like no other.
So here I am, over a year into ownership. The only problem I've had is finding enough time to keep up with this forum and the great people that post here.
I bought the car instead of leasing it, knowing that this will be mine for the forseable future. It will take another innovation, like the TT was, to get me to think of buying another car. I know there are many on this board who have a similar passion for this car. Hell, thats why they gather here to discuss everything BUT this car. These are passionate people who enjoy life to its fullest. The TT is one of those cars that steps above the frey, that makes people take notice and realize they don't live in a cookie cutter world after all.
Audi doesn't need a huge marketing campaign for this car. Look at the collection of people it has brought together as owners, and you'll see it was the design that brought together their demographic of like minded but very diverse individuals.
Now as for the Lexus. I'm sure it has its good points, every car does (well, all Asstecs aside), but lets be real here. Would you pay more for a poorly done copy of a Monet than you would for the original? Take all your common sense "whose best" polls and put them on the seat of your new Lexus. You've already answered that question.
