997 TT to V10 R8 finally to TTS

Hey guys, I finally decided to pick up a TTS and I couldn't be happier.

A half year ago, I traded in my 997.1 turbo coupe for a new Audi V10 R8 coupe. As impressive as the R8 was, I just couldn't help myself from wanting to get back in a Turbo. Don't get me wrong, the R8 was such an amazing car but it just didn't do it for me like the Turbo did. The R8 drew 10 times more attention than the turbo did which was fun at first but started to worry me as time went on.

The PDK makes this car CRAZY fast and I can't wait to take the car out this weekend.

I miss the R8 but at the end of the day, the TTS is more practical and less of an attention grabber. I haven't driven the TTS enough to say I like the way it drives better than the R8 but I'm pretty sure that will be the verdict.

Glad to be back on 6speed.

Glad to hear your back in a P-car, I was always a fan of the Audi R8; especially the V10..
