That's the first TT convertible I have seen which looks pretty good

You won't regret getting the S but you will have a tough time modding it though. Judging by your quoted figures, the S has about half the torque of your TT. If you are a torque junkie, you may be dissapointed. IMHO

I doubt you will find too much of a performance difference since yours has been remapped, but I am sure it will still be faster due to the weight difference - around 300kg.

The S2000 will whoop a TT in the handling stakes too. Your only dissappointment will be the interior, its not up to Audi standards (not a lot is), but its well put together and very functional.

I came from an Audi S3 to the S2000 and never looked back, although we still own the S3 (gf's car now). If you want the car to drive 'properly' this is the car for you.

Just be careful of wet weather driving coming from 4WD, it can bite if you are not sensible.

From understeer to oversteer... enjoy the transition

If you like drving then get the S.

If you like posing the decision is not as easy (but I'd still go for the S).

Er kmpowell...Silverstone is the colour of choice.....it is a beautiful colour only slightly surpassed by Moonrock which is a new colour on the 04.

So..Silverstone is the colour...ok ?..its the fastest...easiest to clean...and most special.

Again....sorry for the confusion caused by the members above.
