 This is an excellent vehicle.  Got the 
1.8T 6 speed manual Quattro with the 
sport package.  Car has great pickup if 
you rev. the engine up to 3000 rpm's.  
Could use more low end torque and a few 
extra horsepower (225 Turbo would be 
perfect).  Was thinking about the 3.0, 
but would lose that horsepower in 
higher elevation (I live in CO).  The 
car is solid, and has an excellent 
interior.  Have had it for 3 1/2 months 
now and no problems.  Bose sound system 
is great.  Leather interior feels 
great, and the car handles like a 
dream.  The car grips the road like no 
other, even in the rain.  Let the snow 
fall!
