Audi AG introduced two limited edition models of its TT sportscar recently. Here are the official press releases.
New S line sports package for the Audi TT
The new “S line” sports package from quattro GmbH for the Audi TT Coup’ and TT Roadster give the compact sports car an even more emotional and dynamic presence.
The S line sports suspension lowered by 20 mm ensures even greater agility and an extremely precise response to every steering movement with firmer shock absorbers, modified elastokinematics and an adapted steering ratio. — Audi A4 Coupé Cabrio Concept.
Cast aluminium 8×18” wheels of 9-spoke design with 225/40 R 18 tyres create a sturdy appearance. Xenon headlights with titanium-coloured trims and the S line emblem on the rear side panels and the door sill trims are additional differentiating features of the Audi TT S line. In addition to the standard colours, pearl effect paint finishes Misano Red and Avus Silver are available as options.
The theme of sporting exclusivity is continued in the interior. Here sports seats in a leather/cloth combination (special “Speed” cloth or optional “Silver” leather) ensure optimal lateral support. The leather sports steering wheel of 3-spoke design and the gear-lever knob are trimmed with perforated leather, the upper door trim panels and the handbrake handle with smooth leather. An aluminium gear knob can be ordered as an additional sporting accent for the TT version with manual gearbox.
The S line sports package is available for all versions of the Audi TT (Coup’ and Roadster) from EUR 2,400. — BMW 6-Series Cabriolet.
