2014 2.0T auto (same pictured from Google). It feels fast to me, at least faster than my car which doesn't take much. It whizzed through those quick - at 5k paddle shifts I was hitting 45 in 5th gear with 3 to go. It handled flat as hell (again, used to mine) and overall I really liked it. (5k shifts also give a nice blow off Pshhh) Hooray turbo noise! Having done sales before (worked at Verizon for years) I was immune to their offers as I knew I wasn't buying today. Autotrader had it for 23, they were asking 25. Honestly, I would have bought it that day for 22. But I still need to offload the nFamous Stringbean.
Luckily on the way home it finally gave me a specific CEL code and told me cylinder 3 is the one giving me a missfire. (Before it was random) Knowing it's a coil pack issue I grabbed two off Amazon for $50 and a door check for $25. Thanks Amazon for the $60 gift card they gave me for switching my store card to a rewards visa - everything will be fixed for $20.
Hopefully this will give the Stringbean some more life for a few more months so I can sell it off on CL then go pick up a leftover '14.

I was thinking about going 2.0t instead because of silly turbo noises and more mods.... But the 3.8 is plenty fast stock and with some mods would be stupid fast. Now just have to wait for the right deal (and hope the stringbean doesn't die prematurely)
