You hit the nail right on the head! My thinking goes exactly along those lines.

Pro TTS: Performance: While I’m sure the C4S is plenty fast, I think I would really enjoy a Supercar for once in my lifetime. Just thinking of the acceleration of the TTS gives me the goose bumps. Depreciation: When seeing that TTS’s with low mileage (below 10k) are to be had for roughly Fr.100k below list price, any future decline must certainly be somewhat less steep.

Pro C4S: Looks: I’m not a big fan of the TT’s fixed rear wing. To me it kinda ruins the, otherwise beautiful, line. Maintenance: Here I’m a little shaky but I would expect around 20% to 30% higher maintenance cost on the TTS? Sound: Assuming the C4S’s sports exhaust sound similar to the one I have on the 996, I know I will miss it should I go for the TTS. Anything I heard on TT’s up to now is nowhere near as exciting as that FANTASTIC “noise” my old lady makes blush.
