That was my post above on the DSG...well I got my silver 2.0 from Champion in late June, and I really like this car. I have owned 40+ street and race cars, and this car is a very tight package.
 
Second week I had it I drove from Key West to the north side of Orlando on a tank of gas, averaging 32.5 MPG at 77 MPH.
But thats not why I bought it.
 
I have put in APR software at around 2500 miles, and it is now completely transformed. Let's just say the Sport mode would be hardly useable if not for the traction control. I plan to dyno it in the next couple weeks.
 
This car with APR software is a blast. Get one.

Chipster, I'd be interested in knowing what the car dynos at with the APR program. Keep me posted on the HP and torque boost. And you're right about the traction control and the new found power.
 
Also, torque steer does become a factor with the HP/Torque upswing. You definitely have to keep both hands on the wheel when flooring it.

Does anyone know if the TT will be offered with the new diesel engine for 2009 in the US? I have read conflicting reports.
 
Thanks.

I am not sure about a TT diesel. I know my new 2.0 liter turbo roadster gets in excess of 30MPG, so I can't see a reason for one in the states. I know they are coming out with the Q7 turbo diesel and would like to add more diesels to their lineup in the near future. I also believe the concept metro also is slated to have a possible diesel or hybrid combination if it ever comes to fruition.
 
With the price of gas in Europe, I can see why they
have embraced diesel engines, but the disparity in price
in the states is much less, so we don't buy as many diesels here and the need for them is much less. My brother and sister-in-law just got the Mercedes GL turbo diesel and seem to be very happy with it. A couple years ago they probably would have never considered a diesel, but these days it is a good alternative to gas.

Wrong!
A lot of THINKING people prefur to have a sporty auto with a diesel engine, and I am one of many!
I am investing in Biofuel and wish to drive a diesel, BIOFUEL, heard of it?
 
Sorry, this is a reply to lovejuice28, who needs maturity.
