It was a car I regretted when I let it go. It will always be in my heart.
Some more pictures of the Audi TT first generation.
The 1st Audi TT is my favorite version. The Prototype from the mid 90's was something. The 1st generation was surprisingly close to the Prototype. Generally, when you have the choice between a Coupé and a Convertible, I more often almost always favor the ...
Wonderful

I dont know
Maybe because they are both gorgeous simple, natural curvy. Nothing pretentious .
An iconic design...

The heydays of Audi design!
Nico, love the TT and it’s bigger brother, the R8. Timeless design and I would argue that they have got better with age. ...
the first care I fell in love with
I was fresh out of college and fell in love with the TT design. I loved that car so much, but ultimately had to wait some 10 years before getting my first Audi. I still drive it, a 2012 A5, but always will remember my first love!
Lovely car…
… MT or R-tronic. V8 or V10? Unfortunately where I live there are no manuals at all. People don’t buy them and manufacturers only bring them in on special indent.
yes, I preferred the slimmer scoops at that time to the V10 version
a friend of mine bought it some years later and still has got it - a classic by now in this slim edition first gen
Thanks!
I prefer the thin scoops too and prefer the first gen shape. The newer shapes have too many angles, so went back to the classic.

Iconic concept designed by J Mays, Freeman Thomas, Peter Schreyer and Martin Smith. I have a friend who still owns a stick shift 3.2 Convertible and it’s lovely to drive with the top down on those perfect, crisp autumn days.
