I feel like you have the "So You Want An Infiniti G35" video ready but just like torturing us
Yes please!
Wouldnt that just fall under the 350z vid?
@@omerabdulaziz1112 there is no 350z, only a 370z "so you want"
@@holdenmatthews6698 ohh u right, i was looking at the 370z vid.
Please do a video on the g35 coupe
THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH! It's definitely an underappreciated car and I loved the video. Me and my Audi TT are happy a video was finally made about it 😂
Julien Rogers The TT is such a great car I absolutely adore my 16 TT. I want to eventually trade up to a TTS or RS
@@lash9400 the TTS upgrade is so worth it. Only 3-5k more but a lot more power. I originally bought a TT. It was fun but not FAST. The TTS is pretty damn fast
henry steinway I’ve been searching for the right one but they are so rare, I’ve seen a few 19s still at MSRP $60k which is way too much. Looking for a 2/3 year lease return.
@@lash9400 buy a 16/17 those are coming off lease. got my 16 for 35k with 13k mi
I got the vr6 Audi TT it’s dope 👌
Both my father and I drive TT’s, mines a 1st gen TT and his is a 2nd TTRS we both love them and have never seen another one in the states, I hope to see more people pick this car up because they are most definitely an under appreciated work of art.
Jack Mize is the audi tt a reliable car in terms of its service?
@@ahmadalsheikh4236 the tfsi Motors have a Problem with the Timing belt and needing more oil changes (2.0 tfsi)
Work of art indeed! Love my 2nd gen one.
Does the car give you many problems or has it been pretty solid over the years looking for a awd sports coupe and the tt seems hands down like the best option
Audi tt may be a small car... but it's heart is very wumbo
You have it on M for Mini, when it should W for Wumbo
20 years later... still no " so you want a 350z " 😭😭
Dang look at how many people want it! 😅
Got a Audi TTS mk2. It’s super fast with 0-60 in 4.9 sec and corners pretty well. Love the practicality with Quattro for winter and the lift back gives you plenty of storage for a little sports car. Just wish the back seats were a little bigger and mpg was a little better. Other than that I think the car fit me perfectly! TTS is a great value if you find one for the right price. Got mine for 17k earlier this year.
Chad Phillips you from America?
Your tts is manual or auto?
Ricardo Domingos it’s a dual clutch auto, but Audi does give you quite a bit of freedom to control the engine using the the paddles or shifter. Unfortunately I’m part of the generation that hasn’t driven a manual much(only once so far) but I hope to get a cheap Miata sometime and practice more. For me it’s fine that the TTS is dual clutch auto but for others maybe not.
Chad Phillips has your car had any problems ? Reliable ?
@@iamdalaw1 yep
Do a so you want (any n54, 135 or 335 i don’t care)
Esgar-Jose Philistin yesssss 🙏
Neeeed
Yessss

Esgar-Jose Philistin yeaaaa
I was most definitely one of the 4 people that requested this😂 but I love my 2002 TT Quattro with 225hp. It’s been nothing but joy so far and this video was meant for me
My 2003 was my favorite car of all time. I drove that thing all across America. Longest ride was NM to Boston.
is it reliable or expensive to do maintenance?
Its reliable for what i know but the mk2 (2.0 tfsi) has timingbelt Problems and need more oil changes
I’m enjoying my 2nd TT (3rd gen TTS) for its looks, it’s looks, plus it’s looks. And also the power. And the luxury. Highly unappreciated car, and a little rare in the US. I get a lot of stares and thumbs up everywhere I go. And when I park it I can’t help but look back at its Glacier White nom nomness. Looks like nothing else.
I have the Audi TTS mk2 and it’s lovely to look at
I always felt the TT was the modern day version of the VW karmann Ghia
Sorry I speak English
FredWasHere looks like the beetle
@ huh?
@@sdkmains huh u?
Erty People say that about the 911. Look how iconic that car is
I personally own a tt mk1 and is a blast, I love it and before it, I was looking for a Miata or a 318i BMW but when I drove it for the first time I fell in love. In Italy, there is a really big community especially for mk1 and we have lots of groups on different social media, there is also a great marketplace and the community is solid.
100% agree with you Leon. The community is also solid and second to none here in the UK. Amazing forums and clubs. I’m also a Mk1 TT owner for the past 6 years. Add me on insta - V3_XTT
@@patrickwooltorton1681 wow nice to see you here 😂
Is there a strong aftermarket support for mk1? I have one my uncle gave me, and I wanted to look into it
If the next video is not "So you want an E46" imma come to the HQ of Fitment Industries, slap you Alex, and do the video myself.
I own a 2000 with 200 plus thousand miles and love it still on factory motor trans and turbo. Love the car. So fun to drive little more expensive car to modify but don’t need speed when suspension and steering parts get upgraded. Love that you guys did a video on the TT.
Wow do you mind telling us how you take car of it?
Do an s15 video please, appreciate it
I daily drive a MK1 TT with over 100k miles in Los Angeles. It's been a solid car and hasn't let me down. It is generally under appreciated but all I care is that I appreciate it.
This is so convenient, i just recently started looking into audi TTs. Crazy
I always thought the 1st gen TT 's were hella slick looking, and if I can find one at a good price.
I'm picking up one tonight so I figured I'd add something. The mk1 tt is easy to add power if you get the right one. They had lots of different engine codes. The one you really want is the AMU engine. It has forged internals and 20mm wrist pins. The BEA is more common to find with the same 6 speed manual quattro but while it does have forged internals, it only has 19mm wrist pins which limits your max power you can put through them. You can still get around 300 hp but it gets sketchy above that. Also ALEX, the b5 a4 is a great car with no issues with the cluster if you don't get the stupid face-lift ones with the digital dash. I've had 2 and they are still in perfect working condition. You can't have digital displays last the 25 years like that.
I own a 400hp e85 MK1 TT such a nice car, though I only drive it in the summer as it’s a roadster and my b5 needs love too.
B5 u mean bf its ok i know what u meant
@Dj Jimmys he said his b5 needs love to and i was making the joke that he meant bf(boyfriend) as in he is a homosexual
Honestly, been wanting a TT since '01, but part aren't cheap if anything goes wrong seeing as it's an Audi, so I have been putting it off. I do personally prefer the gen 1 TT's styling but would also love a gen 2, gen 3 costs too much money for me.
Actualy I belive parts are pretty cheap on the gen 1 (all old car parts cost less) a MK1 part cost as much as a recent mazda part. But whatchout for new europeen car part price
@@tonytouchz757 At least those parts that fit from VW.
This is the car which brought me into the car community from young.I remember having the 2nd gen as one of my first toy cars which lets say inspired me into liking cars and thus the Audi TT is the first ever car I ever knew so when I am old enough to get a driver's license,this is probably my first or second car I would own.
I drive a Mk 3 TTS AND I’m a huge fan of this channel, thank you very much! ;)
I absolutely love it. Couple more years of depreciation and more folks will be missing them I’m sure!
4 people requested this car and makes video yet everyone wants a video of the g35/37 since the beginning of “so you want”
Yes we do like dammmm I’ve said it and gotten hearts so many times
I have a mk2 Audi TT Vr6 and I love it !
i own a mk1 tt they are really comfi and they are decently fun to daily but DAMN THEY ARE UNRELIABLE like crazy
YESSSS my god you speak the truth. The problems I've had with electrical and fuse boxes as well as coolant tee's all the time barely scratch the surface but yet I keep the car for some reason.
@@wonkybomb1865 same probleme had it for a year ,spend the same amount of money on fixing and the car it's crazy to think they are this bad even tho they are just golfs. and i havn't finished fixing mine still have cooling issues and abs / traction controle
Never had a problem with mine. Seems these problems only occur with the 2000s and later versions. I have one from 1999 and runs perfect!!
Yo! One of the best TT related videos ever hands down! This guy Alex is a genius! I absolutely LOVE my 2nd gen TT and think it's the sweet spot between performance and fun to drive on a daily basis.
:) I’m so happy for this video. I love my 225 2001 TT it’s such an awesome and under appreciated car.
Just picked up an '09 TT with the 2.0l, she's very small and pretty fast and crazy good on gas!
Do a “so u want a celica “
Ayy mk1 tt owner here, love it sooo much!
After watching the video I just wanna say I think the mk1 is the best looking, unique and stands out...I may be biased but that’s what I truly believe
Omg yes thank you for listening to me
I love them so much I have a MK1 and Mk2. Something about the MK1 has my heart.
Never wanted the Audi tt, still dont but im still gonna watch this video ❤️
LETS GOOO! Thank you for your support!!!! 😂🙏🏼
I had a Mk1 TT-S and it still is my favorite car! I had compliments on it practically every weekend and it constantly turned heads. One of my life goals is to own a Mk2 TT RS and maybe even own every generation some day.
I love my 2001 TT. It's extremely loud for a little car and I live in a rural town so my exhausts putting all the big diesel trucks sounds to shame is a big plus🤣 also having a 6th gear is amazing
I bought one from a scrap yard out of sheer curiosity because I already have a car that shares a lot of components with it, the 8L S3 Quattro.. from a maintenance perspective the Mk1 is such a user friendly interface it’s a work of art to work on, no niggly annoying parts, worst thing I had to do is the window guttering that I had to drill out a dozen spot rivets to fit the new gutter and solder in a new microswitch for the window.. with ESP on it’s such a friendly car, turn it off and it plants itself in corners and you can thoroughly test its capabilities and get your heart racing.. I wasn’t sure but once you start modifying it you begin to love it.. the styling, the 2000s tuner scene with Reiger parts and a set of nice alloys and suspension.. as much as people forget these things exist they’re now hard to find in breakers yards, most people are buying scrap value ones to fix up.. I’ve only seen one mk3 here where I live, seen 6 mk1 with in a mile of my house.. my only thing that annoys me is you have to spend a long time fixing the head light lens because a layer of dirt can take it from looking futuristic to looking like a barn find Karmann Ghia. 😂 people can’t help but take a second glance and all my work colleagues think it’s funny seeing me spending my break times at work bringing this little diamond back to life rather than pulling it apart. The car everyone forgot about until you see one in the flesh and then it’s too late, you want it. 😂 even the 1.8t is a wonderful sounding engine that has an amazing aftermarket support. Better than the 3.2 with DSG box which is wild.. people getting 400bhp out of something less than a 2.0
Do a so you want a SAAB 9-3. Please
actually used a awd system called the haldex system not sure if the new ones used it but it’s interesting
Yes. I do.
With the 5 cylinder please.
Please…?
I was 3 years old when i played with the Audi TT in Midtown Madness 2. It'll be forever in my best vehicle list.
always used it in Underground 2
A litte light car with a turbo engine and awd? Where have you been my whole life?
I own a mark1 225 Quattro best car I’ve ever owned and it has FBO and tune she rips and I’ve only had a engine code for air leak and misfire been 4 months without engine code she’s a beast
“ so you got your moms old Toyota Corolla” dun dun dun tun tun tun dun dun dun tun tun
glad to see this video! ended up picking up a mk1 2004 TT early august and so far so good, i love it
I had a 2001 years ago sold it and regretted it instantly. Finally found a mk3 tts after years of searching. Said great i gotta get some nice wheels. Ordered a set from you guys and you sent me used wheels. 2 were AFU they even had RA#s on the boxes. I requested a new set of wheels. After a ton of emails and photos to your "call center" you agreed to send me new wheels if i signed an affidavit to pay for the used wheels you original sent if i didn't ship them back. You guys sent me 2 replacement wheels that had a different finish not as glossy. I gave up Never again. Great marketing company that happens to sell wheels.
How long ago was this? -Edgar

Do a RX-8 video please
Rx7/rx7 would be nice
My TT was one car i kinda wish id hung onto. Those lil cars feel like spaceship cockpits, hella fun to drive. Totally underappreciated tho, people tended to either love it or hate it.
As an Aussie and a proud owner of one, can you do one on a Holden commodore/Ute
I've got an MK2 TT Quattro S-line fully loaded. The car owned just about everything, (even.... dare I say it...some Subaru Impreza's) during the winter months in some deep snow riding on some Viking Continental tires here in Canada. The car is really well balanced, it beats the majority of cars from light to light during the summer and is much better on gas & insurance than my buddies Merc SLK or Porsche 911. It's a great do everything well daily driver kind of car. 220hp AWD doing 13 second quarter miles STOCK, that used to be super car territory back in the 90's & early Y2k's. Today you put on an intake,down pipe and tune and all of a sudden your car is 300+HP and does the 1/4 in high 11's and low to mid 12's & let's a novice run a faster lap than the M1 & M2 crowd. Let's call the TT what it really is, a blue collar man's sports car. Glad you made the video.
Few people know it
Buy a used mk2 TT vr6 6mt
-Build the motor
-Add a single turbo
- Enjoy
That’s exactly what I got I love this car but I can’t wait to upgrade to a ttrs
Have 2018 ttrs , love, love love it . Sound, feal ,trill , style , refinement, averiting comes whit this car. Looking forewoard to find a 2012 ttrs to experience the manual drive of this car , in a past gen .
So you want a BMW 335i (or any N54 car)
Yay! So happy y'all did one on this car. I absolutely adored my 2013 TT RS. Car was a blast to drive and always turned heads. I sadly gave it up cuz of German car problems 😂 but I'll definitely look to get another one in the future.
Please do a video on the Smart fortwo. I just swaped a new w18 engine on it and I'm finishing the new rocket bunny body kit. I'm looking for some new dope donk wheels so help me there.
I have 2 2001 mk1 TT's. Ones a coupe, the other a roadster. Absolutely love the cars, fun to drive, cheap, all wheel drive, and if you like turbo noises all you need is an intake. Just beware of stock rods in a mk1. They don't like more than 300ft lbs of torque.
Please do “so you want a Volkswagen Jetta” please!!!
Probably not cuz nobody actually wants those... they just settle for them cuz they can't afford anything else

Hey Alex, I just realized you guys haven't done a wheel history on 5zigen. Next video maybe?
Got an 08 2.0 roadster. I’ve replaced the soft top as the mechanism ground a hole in it. But before that, I spent a fortune regluing the rear glass that was coming off. The ignition/steering wheel lock seized up and had to be replaced. Bad vacuum lines gave me the check engine light. Oh, and of course the engine burns oil hahaha but I still love my baby
so you want an Infiniti g35 coupe pt 12
my built 400hp mk1 makes for a entertaining car glad you made a video on them
So you want a Lexus IS300/Toyota Altezza!
Please and thank you!
You guys featured a short clip of one towards the end of your last video! I have one and they’re incredible cars!

I just bought a 201 Audi Quattro TT with the baseball glove type interior and convertible top. I saw it and loved it. Not sure of what I'm getting in to but it looks, sounds and drives great. Although it is a 2001 there isn't a whole lot of upgradability for this car from what I see from my research
Plesde do a. “So You Want An Acura Integra Type-R” for us nfs fans
Αs an mk1 owner you can always get the roadster one because it brakes the bubble concept quite well. And the tunability is crazy you can get as much power as you like for under 10k.
Owner of MK2 Audi TT 1.8TFSI 160PS. almost 200k on the clock and its awsome car. People buy it it isfantastic machine
Need for speed underground 2 started my love for the mk1 TT, years later I built my own 700hp TT. The potential of the Audi TT is crazy.

You want a mini...? Get four! You'll always be able to drive one of them!
Grandpa had a first gen. Picked me up in elementary school in it. Great memories
3.2L TT 👌👌
So you want a Lexus 3IS ‼️‼️‼️
I bought the Audi TTS in 2010 because the RS was to expensive. (not worth another £20,000) And today in 2022 12 years later I still have it. Phantom black with red and black leather and best of all it's manual! It will have to be prised from my cold dead hands. Love it!!!!!!!
I mean they're cool but I really just want a G35 video.
I want a Gen 2 Audi TT 3.2 n/a yesterday!
