The Audi TT Coupe was introduced for the 2000 model year and initially available solely as a hatchback coupe. This first TT was powered by Audi's lively 1.8-liter, 180-hp turbocharged inline-4 cylinder engine. Consumers had a choice of either front wheel drive or Audi's proprietary Quattro all wheel drive system. A five-speed manual was standard, while a six-speed manual was optional. Along with its low-slung, ultramodern styling, the TT boasted an equally unique interior featuring polished aluminum accents and impeccable fit and finish. A roadster version was added to the lineup the following year, as did a 225 horsepower engine. Although this coupe had a back seat, it was not practical or comfortable for adults, and many found it too small for children.
For the 2003 model year, a 6 speed automatic transmission became available. However, bigger TT news made headlines in 2004, when the 250-hp 3.2-liter V6 and Audi's superb six-speed auto/manual gearbox, known as the DSG system, became available. The DSG transmission allowed for outstanding rapid manual style gear changes with all the driver advantages of a fully automatic transmission. With engineering and style that equals the BMW M, the TT Coupe holds its own on the Autobahn, the country backroad, or the valet drop-off at the presidential palace.
The artfully styled TT coupe did not see any more significant changes until its total redesign for the 2008 model year. The 2008 Audi TT Coupe is slightly larger than previous versions and a new signature single frame grille was added, but for the redesigned TT has preserved the excitement and appeal associated with its original appearance. Despite the slight increase in size, the back seat is still not conducive to adults. Two trims are available-the 2.0T with a 200 horsepower 2.0 liter 4 cylinder with front wheel drive, and the 3.2 Quattro that is propelled by a 250 horsepower 3.2 liter V6 with all wheel drive. Currently, the 2.0 T comes standard with the excellent 6 speed S-tronic paddle shift automated manual transmission, which was formerly known as the DSG transmission. For the 3.2 Quattro, you have your choice of the S-tronic or a 6 speed manual transmission.
The 2.0T is well equipped with standard equipment that includes 17 inch alloy wheels with run flat tires, leather seating, and a CD player. The 3.2 Quattro's list of standard equipment includes power operated and heated front seats and a CD changer. Notable options include a navigation system, xenon headlights, an active suspension system, rear park assist and an S-line Options Package that includes 19-inch wheels and some sporty exterior accents. Although longer and wider than the first Audi TT Coupe, the 2008 model is actually lighter due to the increased use of aluminum in the body structure. On the road, the 2.0T feels more agile as it maneuvers through the curves than previous models. The 3.2 Quattro delivers more punch along with a more aggressive engine and subtly rumbling exhaust system. Audi has reported the 0-60 mph sprint with the V6 as taking just 5.7 seconds, while the turbo charged 4 cylinder goes from 0-60 in 6.2 seconds. The 2.0T is actually the more sporting of the two models, as its quick revving 4 cylinder engine, turbocharged power and nimble steering all combine to deliver a strong and exhilarating ride. However, the 2.0T TT's front wheel drive configuration is unable to match the balance and feedback of a dedicated rear wheel drive sports car.
