i've owned audis for the last 10 years. great cars. spent many hours on "audiworld" discussing mods, etc., but saw a tC on the road a while back and spent a month trying to find one like i wanted it. found it and i freakin' love this car. anyway, i'm new here and look forward to reading from the tuners that have gotten this car over 200 hp, (aside from the magical supercharger that will eventually get here).

as a side note, it was a pain the **** to get my flint mica equipped how i wanted it (stock, plus good sound) because all the so cal dealers added the kitchen sink.

(keeping my 1994 audi 2.8 cs 172hp 5 speed to f with)

Welcome to scion life.

I'm starting to believe I got especially lucky when I bought my flint mica tC. I wanted one bone stock, with the auto dimming mirror. They didn't have the exact one, though they had one that had just come off the truck with the TRD exhaust on it. I bought it up while two other couples inquired about it. I guess getting to the dealership @ 9am had its benefits!

i wanted it stock so i could play with it but the so cal dealers were pretty up front that they make squat on a stock car. only one dealer in at least ten said they would sell me a stock car with a six disc, but i had to wait til one came in. the rest added leather, chromed stock wheels (c'mon), yada yada, because of the local demand for the car.

now i get to add what i want, he he.

lol surfcity, that is exactly what happened to me! I owned an audi allroad etc. and hung out on audiworld (what was your id name?). I got sick of the idiot spoiled kids infesting that website. especially off topic.


I saw a tC and thought it was sweet. I like how the tC has little things like the audi had.... up and down windows and the center console has a similar design (minus the dial).

welcome to the club! you are like the 3rd audi convert to enter tC land....

hey CHICO, you get my PM?

I had an 02 Audi A4 that I traded for my GTO. The tC reminds me a bit of it. Oddly enough it drives very similar from what I remember. tC power doesn't really kick in until about 3000 rpm just like the 1.8T in the A4 I had.

I love audiworld forums. I'm usually in the off-topic sections. One of my best friends owns a TT. I might get an S4 in the future eventually or the RS4 if I could afford that. =)

One of my friends at work spends his day on the A4 forums at AudiWorld, while I spend my days here. He has a 99 silver A4. I think his username is CK something or other.

it was and is surfcity. "off topic" is overrun with less than savory folk but "way off topic" is still the regulars. the all road is an awesome vehicle.

surfcity40

by the way, you're asian, right?

GT4Dreams

i'm asian

surfcity40

GT4Dreams, i appreciate your sharing, however, i was merely making a comment that motozen's assumedly light hearted teasing commentary that audis and tCs only share windows that go up and down and consoles that bear no resemblance could only have come from someone of an asian persuasion because asians are really smart and all.

i meant no disrespect.

Awww, poor dealers

rsx_freak79

congrats.

GT4Dreams

I never got the notion of disrespect, just stating that "i'm asian" also. thanks for being thoughtful though!
