From IS 250 to Audi TT
Today would be the last day I would own my '11 IS 250. I have the car since I last traded in a Lexus SC for it 7 months ago. Ever since I had the SC, I kept having the convertible fever - gotta have one!! I missed it too much so I must get another one!
The IS 250 served its purpose, and since my situation has changed, I was in the market to look for a convertible. Finally decided on an Audi TT and although I'm going to lose a lot of money for the trade in, I did manage to knock $3k off the TT's price. The Audi TT is a '11 model, with roughly 10k miles, the same as my IS, and has most options maxed out (Prestige package,Nav, Bose sound, magnetic ride), so I feel it is worth it. The TT even gets better mileage than the IS!
I'm driving 1,000 miles (roughly 18-19 hours) to pick it up today so it would be a fun road trip. Btw, there is a 1% chance that I would walk away if I decide that the car isn't for me! That would be a shame since I had the dealer install a clear bra for me for $400 instead of the $750 that they were asking.
Here is the photo of it, what do you all think?

Yes, I have thought of it.. I want style, and the IS-C looks too much like the IS for it to stand out in the convertible area. I like the back of the IS-C though, but not so much for the front.
probably quicker than a 250 too?
