Well I only got it yesterday so driving wise I can comment on
the tt
much nicer place and environment to be in more toys like heated seats.
trip computer. Climate control. Traction control.Loads of storage compartnents
Much more of a everyday car and definitely better winter car.
Performance wise it goes very well nice pull and I have seen just a remap on youtube which makes the car very quick.
through the corners the tt feels a little rolly polly and heavy especially compared to the S2000 which was very
Balanced and stable round corners. Apparently lowering the tt make a massive difference.
The tt is better on fuel so far. And well if it snowed now I wouldnt mind
also tt feels better quality even though I thought the s was pretty good too

I found in the summer I loved my s alot more where in the winter it annoyed me at times.

Yes the s2000 was much more fun.raw if you went on a track or when you in vtec and yes I felt more special and rare in the s2000 but its more of a great toy.
where I see the tt as a easy to live with everyday quick car thats nice and sporty with its own style and back seats the whole package.

I just hope the tt is as reliable as the s.i found the s2000 tottally faultless and took punishment with no sweat. Not even a funny smell and could be redlining at 9k time and time again. I did however sometimes have to top the oil up every couple weeks but in a way it kept the oil clean where I kept topping it up .

alot of dodgy storys with some tt.s but from what I researched 2003+ had a few of the faults fixed and where alot better.

and to everyone regarding the z4 its got no back seats thats why I went with the tt coupe instead of the roadster.
otherwise z4 for the better mpg would of been my choice.

I think if I didnt care about the petrol I would of bought another 350z
As they rare. Japanese. Still feel special in it and a lovely place to be in. Nice and chunky

I wouldn't be over confident on that if it's on standard summer sports tyres. It won't have any more grip than the S2000 but more weight and thus more momentum if it does slip.

Never been out in my S2000 is snow/slush but I've been a passenger in a facelift TT and it still slips, slides, pushes wide and is tough to get going.
