O.T. Audi TT Meet - Example

Here's a link to a summary of an Audi TT meet. I like the idea of going to a place like Fall Waters. Now we just gotta find 70+ SVX's in one place. Nice summary!

I'm sorry, but I don't really care for the 'styling' of the TT (egg-like) but it's good to see so many people getting along...

Next year we'll see ya in Layfette!! 100+ SVXs!! Whooo Hooo

I agree with your comments on the Audi TT - of course Audi styling in general leaves me cold. There have been several members - mostly on Yahoo, I think - salivating over the S8. While I have no doubt that it's all they say it is, the styling of the car just doesn't do anything for me.

Regarding the large turnout the Audi group had, I think that says more about the relative number of Audi TT owners that have the time and $$ to attend an event like that. I wonder if there was a registration fee?

Interesting, Jeff. There was actually some discussion about changing the location of the "Reading" Meet (Morgantown, actually, but, who's really counting) to Fall Waters. But, it was not decided. I still have an "emotional" bond to the Reading (see, I can't even call it Morgantown cuz it was billed as Reading when we first met) location, because it was my first.

But, if it would draw more cars . . .

I don't really like the TT's styling either. Just a personal thing (I was frightened by a large Jelly Bean as a child.)

It is an interesting gathering, though. The last time I saw that many TT's in one place, was on a stage in Vegas! <rimshot>

There is a black on that sits in the parking lot across from my office. The same fellow who drives it , drives a Boxter, A '99 Vette and a chopped Deuce Coupe. Needless to say, it's the "plainest" car he drives. It may be okay, but, to me "looks" are important, and it looks like a . . . well, a . . . a car.

I think the looks are part of it's charm... if you don't know what it is, you'll probably shrug it off as "just another Audi"... 'till it leaves you a mile and half behind in just a few seconds. I've always been a fan of the "sleeper".

If you've ever sat inside an S8, you might... I said might (slim chance, I know) think twice about how comfortable the SVX is.

As far as the TT... yeuuuuuck! I don't think I could comfortably drive any automobile that would fit in my closet, or under my bed.... hehehe

I'm with you on the "sleeper" part. I've always loved old unmarked police cruisers.
But for the money Audi wants for a S8, I think I want more than a sleeper look . . .
Besides, it still looks like an Audi
