Are you satisfied with your Turbo?
After about a month of ownership not to mention countless opportunities to test drive a number of other Turbos, I've come to the conclusion that I'm satisfied with my choice in going with the Turbo.
What are some of your favorite features about the Turbo? What are your dislikes? I'll start:
likes:
Techart steering wheel
AWD
POWER!
Handling
dislikes:
Front end is ALWAYS scraping - makes a horrible sound
Sometimes it feels a bit too soft

Got me nervous there for a second! After all your waiting I thought you were going to say, "nah, I really don't like it very much" LOL.

Yeah, small fuel capacity is a bummer too.

As soon as I get over being honked off at the local dealer I'm buying one.

Then "four" is your magic number!
Seriously, your 3 sigline cars are all very visceral in nature. The TT is a little light in that department, despite being able to match or eclipse them all in performance.

I was only unhappy with the performance. I expected more. I am not anymore of course. Lag when there was to be no lag. It took several things to make it what I thought it should be.

Power/Performance
Interior/Exterior fit and finish
Wheels
Basically everything in/on/about the car other than noted below
Dislike
No Bluetooth
Trunk space could be bigger
Still think the 996 Turbo headlamps looks way better than the bug-eye on 997
Fuel tank could use a couple more gallons
Maybe a little bit more power from the engine, there is something a little bit wrong when my truck has more hp than my Turbo
