I love the yellow/orange color and I hope to god they keep that aluminum strip on the side as well. I feel that it is very unique to the car and should stay in the production model.

Man, words can't describe how BADASS this car is going to be. From the exterior to the interior to the engineering and driving dynamics, I can't wait to see how much passion Audi put into this car.

i will NEVER forget the day i took a TT for a test drive. the car had JUST come out.

old ladies crossing the street to get into a supermarket dropped their bags and stared as i drove by slowly

two or three cars pulled u turns along a city street in order to catch up to me and stare

forget it. i might as well tell you that everyone stopped what they were doing just to look at it. whether they were driving or not all eyes were on the car.

the interesting thing is that i want this car because i have loved all my audis, it is an audi, it will be beautiful (that it attracts attention is a tertiary thing), and it'll be like having a TT with POWAH! and i do miss my TT.

the new TT will not be the same.

the R8 will.

The production mules running around have a few differences from the concept that aren't reflected in this render.

Dosen't have the door handles, or side view mirrors. But they did change the headlights, which personally looks a bit cooler than the array of LED's that populated the headlights of the Lemans concept.

I remember those days too. TT was an absolute magnet for attention when it first came out.
