One might observe that all the name-calling has taken place in this thread in the 1st-generation section, not the original one in the 3rd-gen section. Reading both of these threads, and owning both generations of cars, I have to say I'm a little embarrasssed for the supposedly older and more mature group.

(FWIW, add another vote against the TT and AF gauge, all the points were covered in exhaustive detail early in the first thread. ...And do something about that other problem before you ruin your seats, )
