Default thanks to jeff bipes, my TTR cravings are getting worse...

ive been rather seriously considering getting a new ttr lately to reside next to my s4. i went and drove one last week and absolutly loved it. then, i go on the minnesota audi club drive and check out jeff's roadster. i have to have one! my questions are: what quirks/problems are most common? i have an s4 and know for a fact that audis can be tempermental. with talk of 2002 models, should i wait? what (if this is known yet) changes will there be? what are the best mods for this car?
any help is greatly appreciated. i hope to join your ranks soon.

Default the problems seem minor

I've read a bit of the S4 forum, and have seen the blown turbo threads. So far there haven't been any major problems like that outside of the FW drive 5 speed trannies. Of course, the diverter valves are garbage, and need to be replaced. The most popular mods seem to be chips/exhaust/coilovers as well as cosmetic additions (armrests, wheels, body armor, etc).

I'm not to sure about the 2002 models. I believe the audio system is upgraded, and there is a wider color palette to choose from.

Feel free to drop by this forum . . . not as much testosterone here as in the S4 forum.

Default There is still that Triple Green 2001 TTR sitting on the Sears Imports lot...

I'll bet you could get it cheap, it's been there since October.

It is a 225, yes, there is a 180 Roadster, but it's FrontTrack only.
