RE: Put $500 down on a 180Q TT, still considering what I should do,(thanks to those that replied!)
Ok, so I slept on it over the weekend.
I decided I can give up the A4 forum and all the fun aftermarket parts and the fact that I "belong to an A4 group" and join the TT crowd.
When I bought my '99.5 A4, the TT didn't have Quattro and that is something that was very important to me. Now it does. =) Also I can't wait for the 225Q to come out next spring/summer so I will just put the Garrett TT chip in. His dyno chart says his chip will bring it to 200hp with 245ft/lbs torque and I can easily live with that(it helps that I have a chip friendly dealer:

He is letting me trade my A4 Garrett chipped ECU(that I saved from my wreck) for a TT one. =)
If I could have my way I would be getting my silver/black 180Q TT with everything but the phone tomorrow, but I still have to wrap up a few things with insurance so I am hoping to get my TT for the weekend!
I went to my dealer today and to tide me over he gave me the Audi "Salesman TT Self-Study Program Course Number 991903" text book to read. Its got EVERYTHING you ever wanted to know about TT's and even has a test at the end. Its almost 100 pages, so I can't scan it in, but I might make b&w photocopies. Everything from the stereo wiring to the haldex clutch is in it! While I was there I grabbed the keys and sat in my TT for about 20-30min, I needed a chance to bond with it to see if I could get used to it like I had my A4. When I got out of her, I knew everything would work out.
As much as I loved my A4, I really love the unique looks of the TT and the handling. Thanks for the supportive posts from those that replied and I'll be sure to post when I get my TT home in my garage! Wish me luck!
