Performance
Although this new model is an improved version of the latest TT, it lacks drive. When compared to the Porsche Boxer, it lacks agility and athleticism on the track. It does handle well, and is a pleasure to drive. This coupe model has additional safety features which make it desirable.
Interior & Exterior
This Audi model comes in a special and exclusive paint mixture. You can choose from Imola yellow or Nimbus grey. Its sleek and bold exterior is much like the other models made by Audi this year. What makes it stand out is the fixed rear wing with stabilizing bars.
The interior features comfortable leather seats, complete with leather trims. The doors are embossed with a marking that says “1 of 500” which accentuates the exclusivity of this edition.
The price on this new model makes it very attractive. As compared to other luxury sports cars in the same class, the new TTS is fairly priced.
The new features on this car that make it comfortable to drive in, however it does lack a bit of power on the track. Other than that, the 2013 Audi TTS Coupe competition is an excellent car.
