Safety
The 3.2 coupe and roadster come with a full array of standard safety features including next-generation dual front airbags, 3-point seatbelts with pretensioners and load limiters. The TT is first-in-class with seat-mounted head and chest side airbags. Audi’s standard Electronic Stabilization Program (ESP) works in conjunction with the Antilock Brakes, Traction Control and Electronic Brake Force Distribution which helps to reduce brake fade.
Built into the body of the car are two roll bars, which are the main components of the rollover protection system â€' and they look great when top is down too.
An anti-theft system is standard, and OnStar will be available for a fee shortly.
In Conclusion
Audi claims the vehicles competing with the TT 3.2 include the Nissan 350 Z, Chrysler Crossfire, Mercedes-Benz SLK, BMW Z4 roadster, Honda S2000 and Porsche Boxster. In our opinion the only vehicle in the set that really competes is the BMW Z4 roadster, for both looks and technology. But the DSG transmission really sets the TT 3.2 apart from the competition.
The TT 3.2 roadster and coupe finally live up to Audi’s promise to build, for the first time, a true sportscar. They have certainly succeeded. The TT is gorgeous, the ride and handling are spectacular, and the DSG transmission unique and thrilling. You can’t go wrong with this car in your garage, unless of course, you leave it there.
Editors Ratings
Pros: Absolutely everything. 6 cylinder, normally aspirated engine with instantaneous throttle response. DSG transmission. Reasonably good trunk space for a sportscar. Modern Classic roadster styling. A great car to collect.
Cons: None, as long as you have the money for a fabulous toy like this.
