The folks at AutoExpress had the opportunity to test drive the 2008 Audi TT and their results were quite impressive. So impressive in fact, that they believe that in its price bracket -- the Audi TT represents the best coupe on the market. Their test vehicle was the 2.0-liter version of the car and what they found is consistent with what we have seen. The 2.0T FSI engine seems to outperform the V6 version and with this particular car, the Quattro AWD is barely missed.
Here are a few excerpts:
If the mark of a well designed car is that it still looks fresh even when approaching retirement age, then the TT has to be an all-time great. In fact, so successful was the shape, that car's replacement is fundamentally unchanged. It may be longer and wider, but the basic proportions and profile (high window line, rounded ends and exaggerated wheelarches) are familiar. Only two versions are available at the moment: how to tell them apart? Well, the 2.0T gets a grey front grille and twin pipes on the left, while the V6 has a black grille and exhaust pipes either side. The BMW Z4 battles it closely, as indeed does the Bavarian maker's 3-Series coupe, while the Mazda RX-8 and Alfa Romeo Brera are also rivals.[Source: AutoExpress]
