Information coming out of Ingolstadt suggests Audi is in the conceptualization phase of hatching a replacement to its TT under the project name TT Evo. Even more interesting, it’s said to be one of a four car development project that will span the Audi, Porsche, Cupra and Volkswagen marques.
In other words, the upcoming electric Porsche Boxster/Cayman will be followed by a TT replacement, production version of the Cupra Dark Rebe...

Back in 2006, Audi closed out Mk1 TT production with a special edition roadster. For TT enthusiasts, these are sought-after cars, as they paired some of the highest factory spec with the more iconic Mk1 body style. They don’t come up on the market often, particularly low mileage examples such as this one at DRIV3N Auto in Tucson, Arizona.
Just 99 examples were built, and all to the same spec. Each was painted Quartz Grey Metallic ...

Last year, Audi of America hosted a TT Cars & Coffee at its headquarters in Herndon, Virginia. The event was a celebration of the 25 years of TT and a sendoff for the final year of the model. While the weather was a bit to be desired, the turnout was not. There were over 35 TTs across all generations in attendance as well as many other Audi models. On display at the entrance was one of...

In a story written by Nelson Ireson for Automobile Magazine covering the Mark III TT models being driven on the Isle of Man TT’s mountain course, he said the linkage between the car and race goes back to 1938 when the TT Lightweight class was won by former mechanic and backup rider, Ewald Kluge, on a new DKW 250 ULd. We beg to differ. The actual linkage is much more complex and more akin to the building blo...

If you're a TT Mk1 fan or collector of obscure Audi special editions, you may want to take note of this rather unassuming 2000 TT we stumbled across on the Audi TT Marketplace US Group over on Facebook. It's a rare Neiman Marcus Edition with just 15,500 miles... but that's not all.
At the very start of the Audi TT's first arrival in the United States, Audi of America paired up with premium catalogue house Neiman Marcus to offer a li...

When you think of the “restomod” subset of modified cars, you tend to think of 60s, 70s and maybe 80s era classics – cars like the Porsche 911 reimagined by Singer or FJ40, Bronco and Defender builds from ICON. The Audi TT, in comparison, can barely be called a 90s car having launched in 1998 in Europe and 1999 in the USA, so is it ready to harken nostalgia on a restomod level? The Dutch automotive cust...

Before you are the 3 generations of the TT; the Mk1 represented by a 1.8T manual transmission and a 3.2 VR6 DSG, Mk2 2.5 5-cylinder manual, and the Mk3 2...
