Well it took a couple months worth of searching throughout 3 states, but I finally found the car I've been wanting for eons. I could not be happier with it.
It's a 2002 Audi TT Quattro AWD 1.8T. I sacrificed horsepower and only got the 180hp engine, but it was totally worth it because I was able to find it in white. White was a special order color and is very rare, and I've wanted a white car forever now. The car is in excellent condition, and I got an awesome deal on it. It is perfect in every way for me, there's not much at all that I want to change. Maybe some rims eventually, but they really aren't a priority. It's just so nice to finally get into a car that you can just drive without having to worry about bumpers falling apart or rims cracking or whatnot. I love it how it is.
Here's some night pics. Day shots will come on Friday.

Thanks Lee smile.gif
This was the 4th one I looked at. It was in the best condition out of all of them and well worth the drive to Harrisburg PA.

Vehicle: 1999 Hyundai Tiburon
Nice car TC fing02.gif . Do you mind if I ask what you paid for it? Used ones are selling around 11-15.000 euro overhere (that would be around US$14.930-US$20.361). You got it a lot cheaper I would say since the price of the new cars in the States is around that.

Thanks guys! I'm thinking more and more about getting rims, but there's no way I can afford them right now so they will have to wait.
Hive, I paid $11,600 US for it, which was a great deal for the year and the mileage and the condition it's in. All the others that were of the same year were at least $13k. In comparison, I paid $12k for my first black 1999 tiburon back in 2002. I hate to say it, but the tib does not compare at all to the TT. I still love the Tib, but this is my new fave smile.gif
