My wifes car, a 2001 TT Conv Quattro, will do a 130 mph with the top down. No mods just a lead foot. She loves it and I like it. I'm 6'4" / 1.94 mtr so most sports cars are made for dwarves in my opinion. It has been good to us, we got it used off some guy who had it on a lease for about half of what he paid for it so I think it worked out nicely.
