I really like the current TTRS but i'm not sure on that new TT and its huge fish front grill.
Kinda makes me think of this:
Noticed the TTS is predicted at 4.7 to 60 which is RS territory really.
Out of interest how tall are you?
I'm 6ft 3" and I really struggled once sat in the TT to be able to drive.

Presumably that 0-100 is for the manual box, too, so S-Tronic should be more like 4.5...
I'm 5'8". As my Anthropometry lecturer at university (who was 6'4"-ish) said: "When I found I could afford a Ferrari I found I couldn't fit in a Ferrari..."
There are positives to being more conservatively sized... On the other hand, my friend who is well over 6' could easily fit in my previous TTS.

The final reveal was a TT quattro sport concept with 420PS for a two-litre turbo. Does this signal the death of the I5 2.5 for the TT-RS and by extension the next RS3?

Looks better in the version Andy just posted!
Maybe they are just keeping the 2.5 for RS branded cars as they do now?

TT 420
Didn't actually take many pics of the TT Mk3 but the TTS is blighted with a chrome grille which make it look worse than the normal version. the TFT display is a great piece of kit, also seen on the Huracan. Shame even the Mk III doesn't have any rear leg room...

In general I find the new style Audi's look better in person than in photos. Did you find that with the TT?

It's a nicely proportioned car, however for me Audi appear to be overly fussy with their front grilles and by chroming them up like on the TTS it just accentuates how pants IMO they look. The optic version is better

I tend to agree - but that was why my last TT was silver too. I blended the bling in and minimised the impact.

That 420 looks great, Lack of leg room in the rear not a mega issue but honestly don't think a baby seat would fit in the rear of it.
Audi seem to like badging "Quattro" on the front of cars now I see.
