Audi TTS

Well, what do we have here? It looks like a new Audi TT to me... Well not quite. This is the one and only Audi TTS. It's officially the quickest TT that's ever been produced - which is rather interesting given that I like these cars.

This particular model first appeared at the Detroit Motor Show, where many other models also first came to light. It's still not tacky or over the top, but the TT aspects have been toned up. This includes four exhausts, a new front apron, 18 or 19 inch alloys and the now-typical daylight running LED's.

So, what about performance? Well of course it still has the magnetic ride suspension (as standard on the TTS), but it also features a rather unexpected engine. Rather than a monstrous V8 or anything ludicrous, it has a 2.0 litre turbocharged 268bhp. This is good for a 0-60 in 5.5 seconds, or 5.2 in the DSG.

The interior is unusually snazzy for Audi and should be pretty pleasing to most people. I can't wait to see one in the flesh as it were, looks to be an excellent motor...

Audi S5

The Audi S5 is a great car. Why is it so good? Apart from being the sports version of the new and cool A5, there are a few other reasons:

• It's fairly exclusive and will go up against cars like the BMW 3 series and the coupe Mercs in the same price band.
• It is a rather tasty coupe.
• You can have a 3.2L V6 engine giving out 265BHP.
• Interior quality is meant to be very tasty indeed.
• Price of around 40k.
  

Audi TT

Of course the new Audi TT has been out for a while - but I've wanted one for a long time. Years before I could drive and years before the new design in fact. Anyway, enjoy the Roadster above. If you're wanting more info then go to Audi here. Oh, and for the record I'd have the coupe just for the better body rigidity. Check out the awesome magnetic damper system though... Oh my.
