Default Easy decision!

AoA has been searching for a 2.7T that fits what I'm looking for and it looks like there's one about 5 weeks out. They called my local dealer to explain I was the contest winner and would come by to test drive a 2.8 and a 2.7T (originally they wouldn't let me because I wasn't BUYing one).

First I took a 2.8... nice, BOSE sound, 5 spd standard. Drove well, solid, smelled nice, awesome car.

But then... I took out the 2.7T, and it took me approximately 2.7 seconds to decide I'd ante up the extra $ to get this one instead! The difference was truly astonishing, and I was hooked on the spot. Even in 6th on the freeway it leapt into action when I floored it... wow. And all this with the salesman in the passenger seat, he was having fun too...

Never drove 250 horses before, what a trip!
