TTs
 
Hey I have been on this site for a short time, so i my be missing something. But what is it will people calling the TT a supercar? Or a car that is at the top of the car "food chain"? :roll: I don't get it. I am not trying to start anything or what not. But DAMN!!! That car is not that good. AWD, V-6, 5-spd. Wow there are a lot more cars that will show that up with less power, less wheels driven, and less cost. So what gives? :?

DanielW 10-20-2004 01:35 AM
hmmm, i've never heard of it being refered to as a supercar.

maybe they are talking about the 911 TT?????

DUNKiNUTS 10-20-2004 01:47 AM
no no no, there are people on this forum that hype up the TT and i was wonding why?

DanielW 10-20-2004 01:49 AM
the audi or the porsche?

DUNKiNUTS 10-20-2004 01:52 AM
Audi TT

dingo 10-20-2004 01:52 AM
^ he is obviously referring to the Audi, as he said. :wink:
However I haven't heard anyone call it a supercar, although there are fans/owners of it in here (everso, i think) that obviously like it. :)

Hyped up supercar, less put it that way. I am just wondering way people love this car so much? I guess its not over just my head. :|

Twin-engined MTM TT Bimoto is super enough. Twin-turbo 3.6 litre V-8 split in two (not really, 2 turbo 4-cylinder, 1.8 litres each), 740hp, 0-60 in 3.4sec, 220+mph

but no, no one refers Audi TT to a supercar, although TT is a super person.

and no, people do not like TT that much. I, for example, like TT as a super modern art piece.

I think you are insane...especially given that you are from the East Coast...


kidding.

its a TT.. its crap.. quality is less then a convertiable 350z or a honda s2000.. and ive driven all 3 .. and .... the s2000 wins hands down. Calling the AUDI a super sports car is like calling shit more valuble then gold.. no offence to TT owners but.. serious, there not all that made upto be.. ive had a few race's with a tt on teh freeway.. in my 180sx and i simply leave them in smoke ...its a shame cause ther worth so much and get beatn by a car thats half the price...

adamk24 10-20-2004 02:27 AM
The TT is a great car for your sister.... or your girlfreind... or your wife.... its just not a great drivers car... :roll:

T-Bird 10-20-2004 02:56 AM
After driving a TT and working on one I have to say it is a great car the quality is excellent and the ride is nice. it may be a super car but not a Supercar and I've never heard it refered to as one. The V6 comes with the DSG standard not the 5 speed that's only in the lowest model with the low hp 1.8T

TT 10-20-2004 03:52 AM
Dude, can you please give a link instead of just saying "everybody hype the TT"? I never read such a post on JW and I am very curious now.

Just_me 10-20-2004 04:02 AM
Audi TT - very popular among female hairdressers. Thats what I heard.

Indeed when you state something like this some form of "back up" or examples would be nice LOL :roll: For insrance i could start a topic saying that everyone is calling the hyundai sonarta a supercar...... in fact maybe I will :wink:

DUNKiNUTS 10-20-2004 10:11 AM
well i have gotten the picture. No, no one has directly said that. BUT they are sooo many links and post about the TT and i am wondering what is up with that? They aren't that fast, don't look to good, and aren't that popular with people who love true sport driving.

This is one on the sport driving http://www.motorworld.net/forum/show...hlight=audi+tt

But i am really just wondering why its so popular when its not that good of a sports car, and whats with all the hype. Its a chick car.

I think it's a brilliant car and it was the only car i wanted before getting it.

for anyone who thinks it's a "girls car" or it's "crap".....tell that to the S2000s, 350Zs, E36 M3s, WRXs, BMWs, RX8s, old 911s (see sig) that have seen MY DUST on the track and on the street. It's really lame when people who have not driven in the car sit around and throw descriptions as IF they have driven it :roll:

the car is a work of art....and with an appropriate set-up, it DOES perform very well. The TT has had a huge influence on the automotive industry....and will continue to even after it's gone.

as for me standing up and sticking up for the car....WELL, i do love the car, and everyone stands up for their favourite car in the world, mine happens to be the one in my garage ;)
Yeah that is fine, i have driven it, so i know what its like. I am wondering again.....why are people so in love with this car. I may be a looker but its not much past that.

Also with the beating around the track or what not, your skill could be that good or that the other people aren't that confindent in their skill or car set-iup.

TT 10-20-2004 10:28 AM
We are still waiting for links to posts where somebody on JW used the two words TT and supercar together please.

TT 10-20-2004 10:39 AM
BTW, I was someway biased too about the TT untill I had a 180 hp droptop one for 24 hours (rental car)... ain't a supercar, it's yes maybe a girly hairdresser or whatever for most ppl but it's has quite a good and easy chassis, it is funny to drive, even with "just" 180 hp it already pulls strong and all in all a pretty nice package!

But for the third time, NOBODY ever called it a supercar on JW.. you sure confused us with some other messageboard.

Anonymous 10-20-2004 11:25 AM

It's true and with reason, because from the stylistic point of view, the TT is really succeeds. Moreover, with a turbocharged powerplant and all-wheel-drive system: What we can ask better ? :wink:

K04 turbo's rules ! :twisted:

DUNKiNUTS 10-23-2004 12:37 PM
No like i said i am just not catching what the deal is with the car. I used some wrong words but i don't get why people think its so great.

TT 10-23-2004 01:46 PM
Sorry to close this one guys, but the discussion won't go nowhere.. is there even a "discussion"? Doesn't seem so since one of the parties isn't willing to listen...
