why? because you MUST know all the mechanical ins and outs of the car to own an Audi?

Perhaps it wouldn't hurt to learn what your car's name means. Is a name mechanical?

and then probably a good percentage of that that do know what the letters stand for actually know what THAT is.

Same goes for GT, SS and others.

I know what GT is, but since I don't GTi is for a VW am I not allowed to get one unless I do?

He said "yeah its got twin turbos. That's what TT means" I said "no, it doesn't..That car has a single turbo 4cyl engine." He says "no trust me, we can go for a ride and I can show you." I said we can open my hood and your hood and I can show you.." He still insisted he had a twin turbo 1.8 4cyl engine even after I showed him where my turbos were on my car. Rather than argue with the guy over a still very nice car, I just said "whateverdude." and walked away.

Someone selling a car should know basic facts, like what engine is in it..

It's certainly not in the documentation, and if they took one minute to look it up, they would know. Instead, anyone who says its a twin-turbo is just talking trash. It's a boast built on non-knowledge.

Basically, the less a man makes declarative statements, the less apt he is to look foolish in retrospect.
