#14 of 35 2006 TT Grille by senoraqueso Apr 21, 2005 (7:58 am)
I have been wanting a TT since they first came out. We had to finish child support payments before we could afford the payment on our own "TT" child. We are ready to go (after we sell the SUV) with our purchase. I want to get an '05 TT before they are all gone because I won't have anything to do with this new version that looks like something out of Tron. Sorry Audi, you have lost your minds on this redesign. The beauty of the first edition is the elegant fluid lines and understated power. You may lose a potential customer over this redesign.

Replying to: player4 (Jun 17, 2004 9:23 am) Actually, the TT isn't using the 3.2 litre engine in the TT anymore, as far as I know. They're using a new VW/Audi architecture V6, first sampled in the upcoming Passat:   3.6 litre V6, 280 horsepower, ??? lb ft of torque. It will make the TT easily the fastest car in its class, and the ASF will greatly help the slightly sluggish performance of today's TT. I'm not knocking Audi, though- we have two Audis. The TTS will probably have a reworked version of the 3.6 engine, and they may use that with twin-turbos or possibly an ultra-compact V8 in the TTRS.

Replying to: senoraqueso (Apr 21, 2005 7:58 am) This is an artist's impression- seeing Audi's recent redesigns (A4, A6, A8, Q7), they will be more conservative than this with the TT. He wouldn't tamper with the gorgeous design that much. And, if you want a 2005, you better get one like tomorrow. Hello, it's 2005 right now! Manufacturers already have mostly 2006 cars! The TT will run out fast, and the lots aren't exactly overflowing with them. But, before you do that, I'd check with Audi on information for the new TT. If you see the real version in a teaser, disguise, or real picture, you'll probably really like it. It's supposed to be one of the most desirable new Audis, and will have way better performance than today's sluggish [for its class] one.   Cars: 2005 Audi S4 Cabriolet, 2004 Lexus RX330, 2003 Honda Civic EX, 1998 Audi A4 1.8T.

Replying to: quattro (Sep 02, 2004 11:52 pm) Geez, you're one person. Audi has been having record sales lately (in my Chicago area), and you should speak for yourself. Audi is going right, BMW is going left. Audi was voted Best German Luxury Manufacturer for 2005, the A6 is the best-selling new car in Germany, the A8 is literally always voted as the best luxury sedan in its class in an 'All-Stars' type award, and the A6 was also voted World Car of the Year by 50 automotive journalists, from over a hundred new cars. Audi is going the right way, and BMW is going the wrong way, this time. Audi's styling is far from BMWs, I mean look at the conservative A6 or A8 compared to the over styled 5 or 7 Series. Yes, the new Seven is over styled, too. They are not having a 'meltdown', they are having a revelation. I thought, when I had my A6 2.7T a few months ago, that it was really aging fast. It looked incredibly old and bland compared to the new A6. I've seen the new Audis and the old ones, and was surprised at how old the old ones really looked. The A6 looked modern in 1997, but its time has passed. Now the A6 is one of the best cars in its class (The Infiniti M, Mercedes E, and Jaguar S-Type are probably equal), and you definitely couldn't say that about the old A6. I don't have one of the 'new' style Audis (2005 S4 Cabriolet- simply stunning), but I admire their designs. Staying in the same wavelength would really have ruined Audi. They'll have to find two new Audis, and I'm pretty sure I speak for many current Audi owners when I say that I am impressed with Audi's recent leadership, trendiness (AWD- Even BMW let up), and design. That's just you, not me.
#18 of 35 TT Roadster by erickpl Jul 20, 2005 (11:51 am)
Are there any pics of the new TT roadster? Will it be a hard top convertible like the SLK's? I would love a convertible, but love the security of the hard top. I've driven the SLK350 and have been impressed with it (course I'd love the SLK55 ) for a V6. Plenty sporty enough for me. I've driven the Z4 and I can't say as I really want a Porsche. After seeing the pics of the new TT coupe, I have to say I'm really interested to see what the roadster will bring.   -Paul

Try www.germancarfans.com, Paul. According to them, the intro is March '06 in Geneva. I'd like to see where they're going with this one as well. For a car that rewrote styling idioms across the globe, it will be interesting to see if the edge can be regained.
#20 of 35 I Just hope by erickpl Jul 21, 2005 (4:33 am)
that the lines of the roadster are close to the coupe and that the top is a hard top. Quieter, more structurally rigid, and better security.   With the 3.2V6, I could imagine this would be a fun car to toss around. The SLK sure is!   -Paul Replies to this message: jackinok (Jul 22, 2005 11:01 am)

I think to get an idea of what it'll feel like to drive, the opportunity will come in January when the A3 3.2Q arrives. Unless I'm much mistaken, we're talking same drivetrain, remarkably similar suspension set-up and close personality kinship. Personally, I'm waiting to try that one, being a five-door aficianado, before I decide on that or an S4 Avant. Unfortunately, a TT doesn't afford me enough seats or doors!

Replying to: erickpl (Jul 21, 2005 4:33 am) I was expecting a redesign coming. My wife has been wanting a TT for sometime, and we are going to get one in the next few months. I sure would like to see the new 06's on the lots by october of this year......now I'm not sure what we are going to do!
#23 of 35 Ugly BMW Hard Lines by aeh1 Aug 25, 2005 (9:39 am)
I just cannot accept those sharp lines on the sides. Reminds me of the new BMWs, which are darn hard on the eyes.
