New TTS - Phantom Black
Hello y'all,
Been on here forever, but wanted to share my newest addition. Just picked up a new 2013 TTS, Phantom Black Pearl, Prestige. Got her for $2,000 below sticker. Was treated well on my trade, and got 75 month financing at 2.24%. (could have gotten 63 month for 1.87%, but total savings wasn't that much).
I went back and forth several times between the TTS and the VW Golf R. S-tronic vs Manual. Coupe vs. 2-door hatch. Audi vs VW. In the end the sexy lines of the TTS won me over. Only had the car 2 days, but I'm already in love. Wasn't sure if I'd completely love the S-tronic, but it's a blast to drive. Can't wait till she's broken in and I can actually have some fun.
First thing to do to the car is get some tint on the windows! The Phantom Black Pearl is a beautiful color, but it sure makes the car warm up fast. Here's some quick pics. I'll see y'all around.

Hi Justin,
Your looks terrific!!!!
I'll bet you're pretty excited.
I'm pleased to read your comment about the s-tronic.
I'm waiting for a TTS I ordered the beginning of March and the only thing I'm concerned about is how I'll feel about the transmission since I've been driving manuals for many years.
I'll be interested to hear your thoughts on the s-tronic as you drive the next few weeks.
Good Luck!
Regards,
Alan

1,000 mile update
finally have her broken in. S-tronic is great. Really really quick shifts. Love the "farts". Great being able to downshift and engine break heading into corners as though she really is a manual.
Great car overall. Very happy with my purchase. Only issue I'm having is keeping my black car spotless and clean all the time! It's driving me nuts!

Hey Congrats!
I just got the the same 2013 TTS but in premium plus. I regret not getting the prestige. I love the car but I dont like the Audi Symphony sound, it has no bass and no amp. I love the BOSE. What are you paying a month?
Good Luck with your new car.

Presitge is nice. Like it for the back up sensor's, the LED's inside, nav and obviously the Bose. I'm sure you could upgrade speakers for not too much. For me, I like leaving a car "as is" from the factory. That was one of the main reason's for getting the Prestige model. I put a few grand down, got a good value on my trade. Only paying $625 a month. Great car!
