Audi is the God of all cars. What a brand they’ve become.

I agree, if you really want the ABT upgrade, go for everything except the tacky rear wing. Might as well leave the adjustable spoiler alone and save a few pennies for other worthwhile upgrades.

For you the are not happy about the 0-62 look at the Porsche Carrera 4S. It has 355 hp and is around 1.500 kg and is 4.8 too 60mph. The TT is 5.1 to 62 mph so that would mean it was around 4.9 to 60.

A stock 335i just as quick for less dough and a better warranty.

Nice car the new TT is though.

UK and Japan really only stand out to me as far as driving on the left is concerned. Maybe I’m in the minority, but I like a small, understated spoiler to provide mild downforce and improve aesthetic appeal. I would definitely think a huge wing on the back would be stupid. Here, I think it’s a reasonable amount of rear-end hyperbole. To me, it’s a very pretty car. I’m biased towards anything that has a post-modern high-tech gunmetal appearance, though. I still don’t know what wcnhl57 is talking about.

^^^wrong, most european countries DO drive on the right side of the road. Only a few like the UK do they drive on the left…

Is it just me or that above comment is confusing. Anyways, just thought I’d let you know …most European countries do not drive on the right.

How do all these silly European tuner cars make the news?

I’ve seen Veilside rice rockets that looked more elegant and deserving of the spotlight than some of these things.

Quattro! Although the S4 with a similar power rating has a similar 0-60…

But for the TT it’s not all about going in a line…throw some curves at this thing!

I’ll take one…but leave the stock spoiler please?

355 hp and it does 0-60 in 5.1 sec? something is leeching power unless this thing is a porker…

looks very nice, execpt rear spoiler, lovely wheels, remember its 5,1s to 62 mph, to 60 it would be around 4,9s

I’ll take the power, thank you very much but without the rest of the stupid bolt-ons.

Maybe it’s slower because it’s quattro, and you lose alot more HP to the wheels. The M3 probably has more WHP. That would be my guess if this TT is indeed slower than an M3.
