I think it looks like an Aston Martin that's been put in a vice.

Like it

Years ago the Japanese were accused of copying European designs. Look at that roofline and tell me it's NOT the Nissan GTR! Hello!

This will be called the R6, and when they replace the TT in a few years, it will be called the R4, as TT doesn't fit in their neat naming system...

Just a guess.

With all newer cars, it is looking like in 20 years time they won't bother putting glass in - look at how much you get here! I want to be able to see outside, not the walnut dash!

Less fussuy grille treatment and some decent wheels and it might be ok...

Now that is a good looking car! If it turns out to be an R4 rather than the new TT then I would very concerned about how much its going to cost as the current TT isn't exactly a bargain.

I think that there is a hint of a Labo there, particularly in the back half.

tbh, i never liked the look on the original TT.. it looked better in my rear view mirror, going in reverse.. if at all. =]

However the 'current' TT 'RS' [with spoiler etc] actually looks rather nice. Was having a mooch at them in the audi showroom the other week, the price tag is rather horrific though, considering the machinery available for that sort of money if you were to include some of the rather neccesary options.


An audi TT with current RS4 engine in, 4wd road runner sounds nice.. with an eventual launch of a 'track' based limited edition with R888's, cage and lightweight options pack. Im sure it would be a hoot to drive.


More power than traction.. please =]

If it looks anything like that concept, wow. Seriously good looking car, unlike both TTs so far.

Not crazy about the TT so much. Love that ETron. Hope it comes with something that makes it go fast.

I have an S5 on order, but if that got shown at Geneva I might have to re-think this and hope it's not too late to change... wink

He may be implying Prodrive copied Audi.
