The Audi coupe does have two seats in the back that would fit my kids, plus with the rear hatch there may be more practical space available. I've been thinking about getting a first gen TT (about $15K for one with 225 HP and 40K miles) as a daily driver. There are lots of reviews that compare it to the Boxster. Most of those reviews basically say that the TT is NOT nearly the sports car that the Boxster is, with poorer handling and brakes. So I guess it depends on what you're looking for. As I already have a fun Boxster S for the weekends and twisty roads I would pick a TT as a daily driver rather than having a base Boxster. If it were my only car, I'd pick the Boxster as it doesn't snow where I live now, but if I was living in Wisconsin I'd pick the TT. You could make the TT handle better with some suspension mods and there are certainly aftermarket bits available for that purpose.
