Driving Excitement �€" Motor Trend, February 2000 In August of
2011, David Booth, a writer for the Canadian Driving website
reviewed the 2001 Audi TT ten years after its launch. He lavishly
praised virtually every aspect of the car. On TT design: The TT is
not a car for the introverted. Outre, avant-garde, space age;
chances are the TT has been called them all. When Audi's designers
put pen to paper, they were obviously inspired by Oscar Wilde's
immortal admonition, 'There is only one thing in the world worse
than being talked about, and that is not being talked about.' Of
course, Wilde could never have dreamed of anything like Audi's TT.
But I'm sure he would have approved. On TT performance: Thanks to a
truly outrageous 25+ pounds of turbo-boost, the top-of-the-line
TT's version of the little four-banger maxes out at 225 horsepower,
exactly the same number as BMW's newest variant of its coupe, the
six-cylinder 330Ci. On TT handling: The same balance applies to the
TT's handling. There's plenty of grip from the 225/45R17
performance radials and the steering is a delight. But the TT rolls
a little more than a S2000 or Boxster when the going gets hot and
heavy. That's not necessarily a bad thing, as the TT has a decent
highway ride. And neither of those other sporty numbers offers the
security of the TT's quattro all-wheel-drive system when the road
turns slimy. On the TT interior: Audi's round and aluminum motif
continues inside with plenty of buffed alloy making its shiny
presence felt. My favorite items are the rotary dials that control
the venting system and the similarly styled buttons that control
the seat heaters. In fact, the whole interior is quite stylish. His
conclusion: ... the TT does many things well. And besides, it
really is a beauty. Offered here is a 2001 Audi TT quattro coupe in
silver over gray-and-black. This is the exact color combination
Audi chose for nearly every piece of advertising and brochure
created to launch the model. The car's odometer shows 82,236 miles,
or just over 4,000 miles per-year on average. The car's original
window sticker and impeccable service record are included in the
sale. It's obvious this TT has been cared for with love over the
two decades since it emerged from Ingolstadt to the raves of the
automotive press. The silver paint was Audi's choice for the launch
in all likelihood because of the visual impression it makes: the
car appears almost to have been carved from a single block of
metal. Its remarkably curvaceous shape (new welding equipment had
to be invented to form the area where the roof meets the rear deck)
is shown to perfection. The waiting lists to acquire the cars new
ran into months. Here the paint retains the high-quality finish
Audi has become known for: perfectly even application and
consistent gloss across the entire body. There are no dings, no
dents, no scrapes on the metal. The very limited use of bright trim
adds to the impression of a solid, single-piece design. The black
front grilles-another pure design element-retain their factory-new
appearance. Cabin glass and lighting lenses are crystal-clear.
Restrained 4-rings Audi badging is properly located. The rear-deck
spoiler-added to create more rear downforce to avoid some earlier
cars' tendency to fly at high speeds-was mounted at the factory. D
