I'm planning to get a 01-03 quattro coupe with the 1.8 in either the 180 or 225 HP tuning. I've searched around the site and wanted to see what the various options/packages were in these model years so I can start to zero in on the right car. For example, was there some kind of sport package and if so is it worth looking for. Things like that. Didn't find exactly what I was looking for so if anyone has a pointer to that info I'd appreciate it.

Also, if you were in the market for such a car in the sub $20K range, what would you look for in the car, then what would you mod after the chip? Finally, any particular reputable places to buy such a car? Like a dealer which specializes in good quality examples, etc. Not terribly interested in buying on ebay. I can travel to the car for the right deal.

Thanks and if these newb questions have been answered elsewhere I won't be offended if someone points that out. I'll hope to become a contributor rather than an asker as I find the car and get it set up.
