Default TT 1,8T roadster 150hp

Is the 150hp version of the roadster worth buying? I intend this to be my first car...

There is no such thing as a 150HP TT, the lowest hp TT has 180HP.

Are you in Europe? In the US the lowest output is 180.

Really? Didn't know this. Related to the Beetle set up?

It's still available in Europe, and I've had 3 of them as rentals in Germany. I'd say around town its every bit as torquey and responsive as the 180, so its definitely ok. On the autobahn its legs are a little short; it took its time getting up there, but it still managed to wind out to an indicated 144mph or so.

To ertert1, if the $$$ is key, I'd have no worries about getting the 150hp, its fun. Besides, you can still do all the standard 1.8T tuning down the road...I own a 180 in the US, but I'd have considered the 150 if it had been an option.
