But in todays world, poeple want cars to look the same.  If your different, 
people look at you funny.  A car is more likely to sell better if the cars 
looked like a Honda, Camry, etc etc.  because poeple already buy these cars 
and the market is looking for these cars, so why stop a good thing?  I know a 
handful of people that hate the styling of the TT.  I myself was one of them. 
 Looking at it in real life, I concluded that it looks like a Porsche 
911/Bug/A6.  I'm sure the convertiable is going to look alot better.  It 
takes some getting use to.

As for the GS400.  0-60 in the low 5s?  This car is suppose to be faster than 
the WMB M5.  Crazy
