I saw a brilliant black TT 225 Roadster with Aviator interior yesterday. I was walking to pick up some coffee, and it was parked on the street relatively near the coffee shop.

It was the first time I'd seen a stock TT in that sort of up-close and personal vantage in a decent amount of time. And it was a bit bizarre because it was identical to mine in stock form...


It was a bit strange to me, especially having not seen my car in months, that it once looked identical to that car. I imagine it's not unlike being a parent and looking back at baby pictures (granted, I would assume that there'd be a great deal more emotion in the parent/child relationship, but you get the idea...).

I also realized that I've only had my car for a total of 3 months out of the last year, and even several weeks of that went by with the car in the shop.



When I bought the TT, I'd intended to keep it stock. Seriously. I was trying to get away from tweaking cars. Obviously, it didn't work out as intended, but I'm pretty happy with the results.

So, here's how it all went down:

I could bore you with more, but I won't...



What an interesting journey it's been.



Thanks to everyone for your patience, your help, and for dealing with me for so many mods and so many years.

 

guilty as charged, a stand-up guy.

 

"When I bought the TT, I'd intended to keep it stock", lol, I guess you strayed a little.

 

Best of luck with your new 'trojans'

 

I'm not sure digital cameras had been invented then...:-)

 

and you see where I am since TT-East... it's only been about 3 months!!

 

Yea, I remember your baby pictures Chris, you were so much better looking then. ;-p

They were but you put your money elsewhere...:-)

 

at work a couple months ago. It was really odd to see what my car looked like when I first got it. I didn't even know that mods existed when I first started shopping for a TT, I guess we all know how slippery that slope is
