The Audi TT will soon ride off into the sunset but before that happens, a special version of the sports car has been launched in Spain. Just 25 units are heading to the production line with order books to open in November and pricing set at € 72,800 (US$ 77,204).
This limited-run version of the TT is
based on the Coupe 45 TFSI Quattro version and has been designed as a tribute
to the 25-year history of the sports car. All 25 examples come outfitted with
the S Line Competition Plus Package and sit on 10-spoke, 20-inch wheels
finished in black and sitting over a set of red brake calipers. Shoppers will
be able to order the car in either Nogaro blue pearl, Glacier white metallic,
or Tango red metallic.
A handful of special touches have also
been made to the interior of the car. These include the fitment of S Plus
sports seats clad in Alcantara and leather with contrasting blue or red
stitching depending on the exterior color. Audi will also fit each example with
a steering wheel trimmed in leather with carbon fiber accents. Other key
features include the standard MMI infotainment system, Audi virtual cockpit
digital instrument cluster, and the Audi smartphone interface.
As the car is based on the TT Coupe 45
TFSI Quattro, it is outfitted with a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder with
245 hp. Mated to this engine is a dual-clutch S tronic transmission driving all
four wheels, allowing the sports car to hit 100 km/h in 5.1 seconds
and reach an electronically limited top speed of 250 km/h. Customers
who cough up € 72,800 for the limited-run Audi TT will also receive a special
welcome box that includes a watch from Audi Sport. The welcome box also has a
carbon fiber key cover.
