Just got back from a 2000 mile Thanksgiving roadtrip in the TT. Started in Minneapolis on the day it snowed. Here is the summary:
- States/Provinces visited: Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ontario, New York and back.
- Highest speed: 120MPH (Ontario), best roads in N.America
- Most speed traps: Michigan (8)
- Times saved by my radar detector: 4 on K band, 1 on Laser (Michigan)(the rest was visual)
- Most gratifying moment: The cop on Highway 69 in Michigan who took off and followed me for 3 minutes side by side checking out the car after I blatantly drove by him at 10 mph below the speed limit. He must have been really pissed off at me because I slowed the entire pack of cars half a mile before we saw him probably costing him some easy tickets. I guess he wanted to show me who the boss was, but after he pulled over the rusty van behind me I had the last laugh. Warp 9 Scotty.
- Moment of sorrow: finding out that the TT is a 2 year wait in Canada. I feel for my friends.
- Funniest moment: Billy Bub in BFE Indiana trying to race me thinking his pickup truck was faster.
Funniest question: "Is it Japanese?" - car wash attendant in Flint, MI
Biggest compliment: an A8 driver in Michigan pulling off to let me pass then catching up to admire the car.

Did you get to pick your options already? Do you know the cost? (nt)

fraTTe

to confirm the color (silver/black) and the options.I didn't add any option; in Canada the TT already include the confort package. I will keep the 16" wheels for the winter and will buy new wheels (17" or 18")for the summer and put an aftermarket cd changer.

I paid 49,950$ Cdn + 500 (transportation). Of course you must add the taxes (GST & Quebec PST) for a grand total of 58030 $ Cdn!

My dealer told me that my TT will be build on week 2 of 2000, for delivry at the beginning of march.

I'll have to control myself when my dealer will call me, since I don't want to take possession of my TT before the beginning of April (In Quebec, it's still winter in march... and I want to try my new baby with the first warm sunray of spring.


Sigh......
