Default I know I am new here but could someone explain....

why the S4 owners came here to trash TT's?
My brother owns an S4, and advised me to get a TT.
We both get along very well, and respect each other's cars too... what is the big argument about? And why call a TT a faggot car... I just dont get it...

Default I think there's largely a different demographic over there, at least

the ones who vocalize their immaturity.

I don't even try to make sense of it.

Default S4 owners are angry about the new M3... :)

its all just fun - theres always a faster car out there - but some people get bored and need to troll...ignore them and they'll go back to discussing bi-pipes and blown turbos etc.

Default One hates to generalize, but the most "vocal" seem to be...

Immature, insecure, one-dimensional, homophobic, illiterate and generally lacking in wit, intellect or creativity.

Default Its not a question of why, but its a question of what are they going

say when a stage 3 kit comes out for the 225 and the fag car starts churning 12second runs?

Default They wonder why they are moderated over there. Has everything to do with maturity level.

Only little boys need babysitters. :-)

Default Tear a new one?!? It is slower stock. And your comment is moronic

Modified any car can be made faster. There is also always a faster, cheaper car. For instance I can purchase a 2001 M-roadster for the same price as your 225TTR and demolish it. Heck, I think certain model Z3's would probably eat up a TT. But none of us buy cars about straight line performance. Its is the overall package we are looking at, and there is more to a car than how fast it can go in a straight line.

Default Ah, lets compare awd to awd...

And for $45k what you spent on your S4, the WRX could out do a Ferrari. (or a lambo if we are sticking with the AWD idea). BTW it is not slower stock at all. I have driven both you are comparing a true sports rally car with a boat (S4). Nice sports sedan, but if I wanted luxury, I don't wanna have to shift (C32 AMG). So try again.
