Re: Audi TT!

["Jeff Ingram" <jingram3@netcom.com>]

I'd be willing to go with option 2. I've lived in Tampa Bay for 7 years and
I've seen so many VW/Audi prior to their release (Passat, A8, A6, A4, and A3
which never made it here.. A week ago I saw a TT coupe also on Waters and
Dale Mabry. I was going south, moving at 50 mph and talking on the phone. It
was on Waters at the beginning of  the intersection. I just saw a very fast
glimpse at the headlights (at night mind you) which were very distingively
something very different. "Damn" I shouted and nearly caused an accident
trying to get a second glimpse. This is truely at car that you have to see
in person - even if its' a glimpse. It makes the M coupe look downright butt
ass ugly!!!

If you see these test cars, keep your eye open for others; they travel in
packs.....
