    On these TT/A3 subjects, I have to agree with The P' 100%...

    Basicly, all Golfs from Mk4 untill today are very simmilar, in technical point of view, so the same case is with TT. If Audi looks at it self as a premium and serious factory, one of their most popular coupes, in this case TT, has to be more sofisticated, more serious car than this!

    You can buy a Scirocco and have in big lines the same car minus the aluminum body and the fancy Audi design.

    Audi made a big mistake in the past, Audi showed the world the quattro spider.



    But desided to choose the TT for production over the quattro Spider from a design point of view.

    This was not the big mistake back then, the big mistake back then was to build the TT on a Golf floorplan instead of building it on the quattro spider florrplan.

    Building a mid engine TT would cost the same as a Boxster and people would bitch even more about the price and that it's not a Porsche. What was the quattro spyder platform, it wasn't an actual platform just two prototypes.

    The TT competes with the SLK and Z4 (no matter what Audi says) which mostly sell on looks and style more than anything else. The TT, if it performs better than those, will be more than fine. Super drastic changes aren't likely nor would they even make sense.

    And I do not like the Autocar rendering at all, too much of a hatchback look vs. that of a coupe.

    Not seen any renderings/sketches that make any sense of what it could look like.

    This story tells me the next TT can be some different compare to the rest.
    They talk about A, R and Q lines and not about the TT.
    That can mean two things, or the TT get a design of it's own or the TT gets R styling.

    Audi promises greater model differentiation
