MCSCa or Audi TT Cabrio 250hp?
OK, I know it may not be too objective in here, but any comments on how you feel these compare?
Thanks, Glenn :smile: :smile: :smile: |
cost to fun ratio = MCSCa

NONE of THEM- NEW BOXTER S
Definitely new Boxter S . Audi TT is getting old, love the DSG with 3.2 V6 but the body-style is changing pretty soon. MCSc, I do not like the idea of having the Mini in cabrio, does not appeal to me, Panaromic roof serves the purpose more than enough.

Audi TT or the Boxer... but no Mini convertable. Just say no!

it is very hard to compare the MCSc to an Audi TT 3.2 quattro roadster. Might as well strech a little bit more and get the Boxter. It would not be a subject of hard decision making if we were comparing w/Miata:wink:

I've driven both, and I own the MINI S Convertible. :thumbsup:
The TT is cramped beyond belief. The controls feel much less "connected" to me on the TT, and it's just SO much more money! On the other hand, AWD is really nice... If you MUST have an automatic, the TT will have a noticable performance advantage, but if you go with a stick, I think the new MCS Getrag 6-spd is just amazing. The MINI is more practical, more fun, and will cost you less. Don't understand the negative attitudes toward the MINI convertible. :confused: _Dave_ edit: For the cost of the TT, you could get a Lotus Elise! Only very slightly less practical than the TT, with astounding performance and handling. 2nd edit: that 3.2 motor in the nose of the TT makes it feel extremely nose-heavy compared to the MINI, and the additional weight pretty much offsets the HP gain. |
If you were comparing two year old used cars(eg 225HP TT vs. MCS), it would be a lot easier because Audis tend to depreciate to half their original cost in just two years. Wait that's a good reason for a new MCSc right now:wink:

Thats not to say the MCS is a better match for what you want... test drive all you can... |
Cost no object I'd still go MCSCA. Audi still does not have the build quality or the fun factor. If you feel you NEED to spend more than a Mini costs I'd vote for the Lotus.

It's going to be the Mini. What was I thinking? :grin:

I had a TT when they first camr out in 2000. Granted, it was a 180 hp model. It wa a really cool car. Fun to drive. And yes it was cramped inside. Ended up selling it about 18 months after I bought it. Why? Well, I needed a truck to be honest. Anyway, I took a bath on it. Lost my a**. A few years later, when I could afford another toy, I looked at several options including another TT. But the Mini was just too cool. And, for the price, you can't go wrong. Yes, the TT will go faster. But so will a dozen other cars. I bought the Mini. In fact I now have two. And the two are about what a TT would cost. Bottom line, for the money, Minis rule.
