Audi TT RS Spotted Undisguised on US Soil

It still looks hideous from the side...

The front screams monster Cayman killer but the rear says "diesel base version"! Audi needs to sort out their design, it's getting erratic lately!

Do we really need another? the TTS is already a great car...

One of the most beautiful cars out there. Can't wait for the RS version!

Is it just me of Audi's making their cars with too many engines? This TT goes from a 1.8 160bhp to this RS 350bhp, with a 2.0 diesel in the middle... Why? I seriously dont get their idea... I even like the looks on the TT, but when I buy a premium segment sports car, I expect some exclusivity... and if I get a TT S or even this TT RS, there's probably going to be a TT 1.8 or a TT TDI stopping next to me in the traffic... and that sucks big time!

Ego at the traffic light aside, there's a lot of logic behind offerring plenty of engines for the same car.

The engines already exist, why not offer the customer the TT with a more fuel efficient 1.8L? Your budget doesn't stretch as far as a TT-RS, but you can still look good in a regular TT, both sides win.

VW-AG are big on modularity, the same platform supports dozens of cars in their lineup, and so do the engines. Now that's what you call German efficiency.

looks brutal and it is brutal for a TT stock model. the fromt bumper screams: i got a turbo on board!

i dont mind BIG the front side air intakes but the lips bordering the bumper and the air intakes are so ugly. it also looks like it's from the BMW 3 series (with that modified bumper).

Not blowing up my skirt in any way. But that's what Audi design is as of late. Bleh

CAYMAN KILLER!

Audi just gets better and better

agreed to many TT's

Reminds me of Darth Vader.

the front bumper could be still be fake and NOT the final one. the RS5 won`t have that huge-air-intake-bumper it seems, although the spy pics were suggesting:

what, so the best bit on a rubbish car is now fake?

-the

whoot, I'd drive a 350hp audi tt.

Ihated the old TT, it was only a regular VW Golf. But the new one looks good and is a premium sportscar and apparently soon with almost supercar performance. And im sorry but you dont buy a TT for exclusity. Its still a fairly normal car even if it looks good. So you shouldnt cry just cause another TT stops next to yours. Its for young lads who are beginning to get rich and wants a fast car and dont care about any other sides about it.

Here's a senario.... You're driving along the highway, autobahn, autostrada, whatever. And in your rearview mirror, you observe the vicious, ferocious character of the front end of this vechicle coming up fast on your rear. And before you know it.... It blows pass you and continues on it's merry way. And as it dose this, you observe the characteristics of the rear end of the same car and you begin to wonder "what went wrong?!?" and if it was indeed the same car that you observed in the begining. I guess the point I'm trying to make here is that neither ends of this car compliments each other, nor dose each other any type of justice. As catchmyshadow suggested, it may indeed might not be the final product. But if the above photos dose prove to be a final product, then Audi have a bit of explaining to do and some sorting out of things in that department.

Damn, look at those intakes. The design of the intake areas aren't the best they've done with their audis but this thing looks like it's going to suck up all the air in it's path. BEAST!
