Dan, you'd be doing us all a favour if you didn't bad mouth tiptronics on other message boards. You're certainly not endearing yourself to the large number of tip owners on this forum, all of whom will be looking to sell on at some point in the future. Comments like this don't help our community one bit.

Do not knock the tip FTO unless you have driven for a length of time, a 10 min test rive will not geive you a real feel for it.

Also annoying that the new owner would be so lazy as to not prepare the car and take their own photos, and instaed use old ones that are now years old and do not show the car in it's current condition.

While everybody is admiring this car, and yes it does look well, bare in mind that those photos (the ones I can see on this forum) are at least two years old, are there any current photos?

As Elaine was saying above, the front bumper is in bits now and it's probably in need of some work I'd say!!
Still one of the most head turning cars I've ever owned though and I wouldn't reckon it'd cost too much to get back to it's former glory!
Whoever buys it may post some pictures of her now though!!
