The car is gorgeous, with its rolling curves and soft lines. At first glance, it looks like a modern classic, offering up the gentle rolls found in the automobiles of another era. However, the inside tells another story. With the polished aluminum trim / accessories, the car is truly a mix of past and present.
Performance is on par with a turbo charged 4 cylinder motor. The Audi TT is not a light car, coming in at just under 3,000 lbs. However, with 180 HP that is easily modified to a near 300 WHP beast, the car is a dream. The stock TT handles marvelously, and upgraded suspension turns this car into a beast that handles on rails.
Downfalls. Unfortunately, the TT requires lots of maintenance. Look at spending $2000 a year on routine maintenance. The timing belts MUST be changed every 60,000 miles. If you put this off, and risk snapping it, you are looking at a $4,500 head rebuild. A typical timing belt job replaced the belt, waterpump (the plastic impeller cracks and breaks off inside the engine causing it to seize), belt tensioner (common fail part), stretch bolts, and a thermostat is also sometimes changed as well. -The haldex needs servicing every 20,000 miles. -The oil NEEDS to always be changed at normal intervals. -The Audi TT eats only Premium gas (at $3.59 a gallon currently).

This car is loaded with features and is very reliable. It's futuristic design turns alot of heads! Most importantly, it is a safe car, because it has all-wheel drive, anti-lock breaks, and several air bags to protect the driver and passengers. Source: eBay Motors Reviews |

Got this from seller- It did not run - had to jump if off when we got it off the truck. When we did jump it off- the check engine light was lit. Had engine problems about $3000 worth. Missing parts off engine- basicly the check engine light will be on all the time - no matter what we do. Seller not answering calls or answering emails. Radio needs a code to unlock- seller did not provide & will not answer calls. Shocks & struts were shot another $1500. Overall a maintenance nightmare- this when seller advertised this as in very good condition. Right! Source: eBay Motors Reviews |
