Update: Audi TT-RS – more images
Sun, 22 Feb 2009We did a piece yesterday on the Audi TT-RS teaser images released by Audi ahead of the TT-RS launch at Geneva in March. But now we’ve got some more pictures, even though they are not official Audi releases (excuse the less than normal quality).
It would make much more sense for car makers to stop teasing and do things properly. At least then we wouldn’t have to bring you less than perfect images. But never mind, at least you get a pretty good idea of how the car looks.
Audi TT-RS - Coupe ad Roadster - in UK Car Showrooms in the Summer
Much of what we concluded yesterday stands. The new bumpers; the RS badging; the exhausts; the fixed wing at the back. But it’s nice to see it all in the context of the whole car – Coupe and Roadster – rather than in arty teaser shots.
As we told you yesterday, the TT-RS will get a five-pot engine with around 350bhp, giving a 0-60 time of around 5 seconds. Great perfomance and an altogether more aggresive look for this hot TT. Typical Audi styling is there, with a very competent interior and a well-executed look.
The Audi TT-RS will be in UK showrooms by the summer. No word on price yet, but as soon as Audi gets its act together and releases the information we’ll bring it to you.
