Love it. Even the small 2.0 liter turbo has very good acceleration. Interior is good quality. Convertible top is simple to operate and fast. Exterior looks aggressive yet elegant. The many features satisfy even an engineer-nerd like me. It makes me feel like a race driver.
Except for maintenance costs associated with putting a lot of mileage on this car and keep changing wearable parts, the car is enjoyable for your daily drive. You may have to change the blow-off valve later on for the 1st gen TFSI engine. The stock 18" wheels have 9" width so you can put up to 275/35/18 for extra grip and some handling loss.
I thought that by buying a car from CARMAX, it would have been through all of the inspections and updates required.... Nope. This is a beautiful car, however since purchasing the car from CARMAX it was in the shop within 30 days of purchase for a software update on the convertible top, then in another 5 more times within the next 7 months for convertible top motor replacements first the left motor, then the right motor, then the brace for the top, then the radio just stopped working. No reason just stopped. The top broke again 3 weeks ago, I brought it to the shop, had it fixed and it was not working again within 3 days.
