Default Colorado TTs finally under list, and our brakes are GREAT...

Dropped off the car at my dealer and noticed that they had quite a few TTs on the lot. I asked my sales guy and he mentioned they would be willing to discount from sticker now that they had quite a few...

Anyway, if you're interested, it's Dave McManus @ Prestige Imports, (303) 238-8101.

Now that the commercial is done, I must also mention that I almost blew threw two or three red lights with my Enterprise Taurus because the brakes on it suck so badly compared to the TT's; no wonder our cars always get rear-ended in panic stop situations...

Default Bill: I agree their better than Taurus.. I think the stock 225 stoppers at speed are poor.. anybody

else think so?? Ive seen a few people on board have used EBC pads, much difference? Anybody switched up to bigger rotors? Or six piston calipers? Hey on the EBC are people using green or red?? Any improvement in Fade??

Default EBC pads are better than the stock, but still wouldn't track the car with the OEM rotors, etc. Those

who have autocrossed or raced on the track would agree. That's why so many are switching over to the StopTechs, etc. The OEM brakes are only sufficient for street speeds and braking. IMHO, of course. ;-)
