Vehicle Highlights

The 2008 Audi TT marks the return of this sporty car after a 2007 model year hiatus. It comes back with fresh styling and new powertrains. Four-seat Coupe hatchback and two-seat Roadster convertible models are available. Base Coupes and Roadsters have front-wheel drive and are called 2.0T. They use a turbocharged 200-hp 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine. Both body styles are also available as the all-wheel drive 3.2 quattro and use a 250-hp 3.2-liter V6. A 6-speed manual transmission is standard on 3.2s. Optional on those and standard on the 2.0T is an automatic transmission. Standard safety equipment on all TTs includes head-and-torso front side airbags, ABS, traction control, and antiskid system. The 2008 Audi TT has standard leather upholstery and automatic climate control. A magnetic suspension system is optional. It allows drivers to alter suspension settings for comfort or high-performance driving.

COMPETITION

Consumer Guide Automotive places each vehicle into one of 18 classes based on size, price, and market position. Offering more power and style than typical Sporty/Performance vehicles, Premium Sporty/Performance Cars usually cost much more and have more comfort and convenience equipment. Two-passenger convertibles and four-seat coupes rule the roost in this class.

Our Best Buys are the BMW Z4 and Chevrolet Corvette. Our Recommended picks are the Jaguar XK Series, Porsche Boxster, and Porsche Cayman.

New or significantly redesigned models include the Audi A5, Audi R8, and Audi TT.
