The things I loved about the car: 1) absolute freakin monster on the track - so much fun 2) transmission was unbelievable 3) looks - sexiest car on the road 4) engine noise

0 regrets making the switch.
Exact same reasons I went TTS! Congrats and enjoy!

Welcome to the TT world.

1) and 3) and 4) You validate why i got a TT in the first place and am also super happy. A "race" car is not that much fun on the street 90-95% of the time. The TT is refined enough to enjoy all the time and its sporty enough for 95% of the time and its stealth enough for 95% of the time . My Perf is too loud, attention grabbing and harsh for most of the time. But for that 5-10% its on another level. My wife doesn't want to go in it - period.

i am very intrigued by the 600LT. Never driven it.

Drove the 720S and its fast as heck. But my TT now its modd'ed is close in a straight line - not quite but fast enough for me (Cobb AP). But far more practical.
