For what it's worth, I was also recently in the market for a GTS and ended up with a Turbo because I loved the power. With PDCC I did not feel as of I was giving up much in terms of handling but the exhaust sound (or lack thereof) is certainly noticeable.

I really think it all boils down to personal preference.

 

so you think the GTS exhuast is louder then the tt??

 

It certainly is louder though I like the TT's exhaust tone better (I've always preferred the sound of turbo cars). The only caveat would be a TT with the sport exhaust option - which I have not heard.

 

GTS' have a pretty throaty exhaust note!

 

I do know when I put my TTS in sport mode it sounds pretty throaty so Im happy with it, I cant remember the difference in sound when I test drove a GTS

 

Aspenone, did you pick up the 09TTS from Chicago Motor Cars? I was looking at that car with the ceramics and it got sold.

 

Hey Forbsie although I know the exact car your speaking of since not too many TTS out there, I didnt. I actually decided that those brakes are waaaay too much to replace on a daily driver. I actually found a 09TTS local but they have another 09 TTS with non ceramic brakes

 

Cool - happy for you. I suppose I can add +1 in this column. To be fair, I can somewhat relate. I bought my CTT with the intentions of dropping it to firm up the ride and handling, adding more power and more aggressive throttle mapping with little costs. I was much happier within a few weeks.
