RE: A beige TT, please...
Tuesday 26th June 2007
We know - it's just plain old redAudi has been toiling away to bring you the ‘Exclusive’ range for all its models – an incredible 30,000 individual exterior colour options. If that still doesn’t satisfy your colour cravings, you can give them a sample of your colour choice and they’ll do you a one off mix. You can also take your colour preference to just about any interior surface in a variety of materials.
A beige TT, please...
Audi gives you more colour choices
We know - it's just plain old red
This has sadly already spawned a shocking pink TT coupe; painted to match a set of back seat cushions. Not sure of the trade-in value on that one…
Following on from that, Audi has launched four colour-coordinated TTs with two tone nappa leather interior trim. The magic hues are: silver, crimson red, signal orange and saddle brown. You also get matching stitching and piping round the gearlever gaiter, handbrake and steering wheel. If that catches your fancy add an extra £1,750 to the price of a 2.0T or £1,200 to a 3.2 litre model.

Well hairdressers are supposed to be stylish..... 
Why always the assumption that TT owners are hairdressers? Can we not be stylish without being a crimper? What do you think a welder should drive for example?The Mk 1 TT used to be available in a non-metallic grey that I liked lots - suited the Bauhaus styling of the car well. Made it look like a U-Boat.
As has been discussed here before, the new model loses some of the distinctive character of the original, vidually at least, but does seem to carry a mini-DB9 feel about it instead.
Not sure beige would enhance that.

Really suits it...think it was called dolphin maybe?You would have to be completely nuts to go to a dealer and hand them over a sample color and tell them to paint your new car, I mean, come on, the thing could turn out hideous looking. This isn't Changing Rooms, at least if you paint your house in an off color, its an easy fix. It might sound really cool painting the car in lime green, but in reality its going to look crap.
I can see in a few years time used car dealer forecourts filled with bargain Audi TT's due to the odd color scheme's

I don`t care what colour you can now get TTs in: I`d still rather have an Integrale in any colour. Does that make me a Phillistine, or just someone who appreciates dynamics over style?
Well as someone who's owned both, the Integrale is the best drive but the TT is better build quality...But yeah, choose one or the other then I guess my nickname shows where my heart is...

so we are going to see some pretty naff examples about soon trying to be 'different'
If there's a good reason for an auto maker to dictate choices its to avoid aesthetically challenged morons from trying to out-do the car's designer.In the end it's massively counter-productive. For every pink or garishly multicoloured interior on the street there's one less buyer. And maybe two.
.....so when a company like Audi offer a couple more,admittedly on a car with an image problem,they get caned...what a strange world we live in....Adam B said:
