TT is lame. ****-quattro.
IDK about subies being thaat unreliable; I know a guy who kicks the **** out of his on a daily basis, has since he got it a year and a half ago, has put 60K on it, without a single maintenance problem. Not only that, but he has modified it quite a bit. Three different exhausts, two intakes, a full custom turbo kit (t3/t4 variant.) It runs 12s on the stock clutch, although that's about to change. True, the trannies are weak points, and the internals aren't too strong, (350chp, I hear, before they pop) but still, the EJ20 is a good engine, a great starting point, and very reliable day-to-day if you don't beat its ***. Besides the WRX would be practical.

I thought A4s didn't appeal to you???? I hate to say this but soon and very soon your gonna be wanting to cut about 2 seconds off your quarter mile time and your not gonna be able to do it in a 2.8 without forking over 5k for a SC. As much as I love my A4, if I'd had the extra $ I'd have gone with WRX. Hopefully the upcoming K04 PC-16 will solve my problems

i think he will be fine with it, we said he wanted a reasonably fast car, which the 2.8l is and plus audi's offer alot more in terms of confort then wrx's do. But juju does have a point be awear that you if u buy a 2.8l then you will not be spending your money wisley trying to mod the engine

No it isn't. Not at all. They're fxcking lame. juju is absolutely right. Compared to any other car you looked at, the 2.8 is a turd. No two ways about it.

I thought you said you didn't want another A4?

ur getting a little carried away, there is absolutly nothing worng with a 2.8l, they have a fairly quick and reliable engine. granted you can not do much to mod then unless ur going all out with a s/c, but they also offers things that you cant get in a 1.8t like leather...
