Speaking for myself, there's lots I like, some I don't, but o/a Audi are doing just great - lets see how it goes in the World economic markets, with such a release though as it won't be cheap in any of them...

Will be fully unveiled next Tuesday in Geneva, for the moment here's the teasers, some specs and an awesome sound vid of the new TT-RS' 'VR5' (staggered IL5) turbo engine, all courtesy of a UK TT forum I'm a member of :)

The 1st 3 pics are not Audi material, just someone having fun with the whole Audi 5 cylinder rebirth thing :lol:

Quick specs as they are ATM:
Engine 2.5ltr DFSI turbo
Power 250kw / 450nm
Performance 0-100km/h 4.5sec.

The hairdressers or posers only TT started dying with the TTS and is well and truly dead with this variant, initial reports suggest the TT-RS can do away with an R8 in the straights and on a track :eek: and can even stick with the new R8 V10 in corners and only falls behind on the straights and can see off a Porsche Cayman without breaking a sweat...lets wait and see.

Rocco, I'm in the same boat, my nuts are the size of peas and truly emptied over this car :o

I fell madly in love over the TTS, this TT-RS has got me going bonkers :crazy: despite having a few items/features I don't like...

I'll have to look at my work situation carefully and discuss matters with the missus and see if Audi dealerships become more desperate with the current climate...what a prize a vehicle like this would be to own :angel:

Ta for the pics..saw them today @ netcarshow.com
Wouldn`t count on any discounts from Audi though as the Australian market is one market that is still increasing for them.
I think white would be my colour choice too....almost makes me want to think about selling my Valiant :rolleyes:

HAHAHAHA LOL guys :D

It definitely won't be at the Melb. auto show...:( 'Ibis white' is DEFINITELY the colour I'd have on this or the TTS for sure :) there's also another 'Audi exclusive' colour called 'Suzuka grey' I've seen it on a TTS (will have to put some pics up) and it looks fantastic, it's like a metallic pearl white, with a hint of grey...BUT Audi in their infinite rip off wisdom want around 10k Aust. to provide you with an Audi exclusive colour...:mad:

The TT-RS won't be released in Europe until March/April - ETA for Aust. will be around August...

As for Audi pricing, yes they're still doing 'OK' ATM but that's mainly due to the fact that they've had numerous new model releases as of late - regardless of the state of the economy, there'll always be an initial uptake, but it will die down...quick !

Lets see how well they're doing by the end of this year, the economic downturn is far from over yet, it hasn't even peaked :ihih:

They may very well be in the same boat as Mercedes and BMW ATM, where they are struggling and offering good discounts...

As for exploding my pants and making a mess at the show, nothing new for me, happens every year :o :lol:

Here's a brochure type pic from the Audi media services:

hahahaha LOL :lol:

Here's one for you and true as well...

My missus was getting sick and tired of me raving on about the TTS last year, she's always been a BMW 'fangirl' and was happy with the 135i we checked out 1st. then I persuaded her to come with me on the test of the TTS - BANG, hooked, ever since and she's forgotten all about the Beemer and can't stop talking about the TTS, that's how attractive, beautiful and attention grabing these things are in real life...when I went back for my 2nd back to back test drive of the TTS and 135i, she didn't even want to come over to the BMW dealership and I couldn't get her away from the new S5 as well as the TTS in the Audi dealership :)

The Audi TT RS:
A Pure Driving Machine developing 340 bhp (250kw)

Latest standard bearer for celebrated Audi RS range pays homage to 1980s quattros with high-tech five-cylinder power

- New TT RS Coupe and Roadster debut at the 2009 Geneva Motor Show (March 5th to 15th) and open for UK order in late March priced at £42,980 OTR for the Coupe and £44,880 OTR for the Roadster - first deliveries in June
- First modern day Audi model since the emblematic quattro coupes of the 1980s to feature charismatic five-cylinder power in a new high-tech form that makes 340PS and 30mpg a reality
- 340PS from 5,400rpm to 6,700rpm, 450Nm from 1,600rpm to 5,300rpm, 0-62mph in 4.6 seconds (Roadster 4.7 seconds), top speed limited to 155mph but can be increased at extra cost to 174mph, combined mpg 30.7 (Roadster 29.7mpg)
- RS 4-style Sport button boosts throttle response and further enriches exhaust note
- New six-speed manual transmission, enhanced quattro system capable of diverting almost all torque output rearwards, TT RS-specific sports chassis lowered by 10mm (Audi magnetic ride adaptive damping available at extra cost)

At the 2009 Geneva Motor Show (March 5th to 15th) the spirit of the revolutionary Audi quattro coupés of the 1980s will be reborn for the 21st Century in the TT RS, a remarkable fusion of these two emotive modern day Audi hallmarks equipped with a new high-tech, 340PS interpretation of the quattro's evocative five-cylinder turbo engine. Available to order in the UK in Coupe and Roadster forms from late March priced at £42,980 OTR and £44,880 OTR, the new high performance sports cars will reach their first customers in June.

The successor to the five-cylinder, 200PS-plus turbo charged petrol engine that delivered premier league power with a famously charismatic engine note in the rally-bred quattro road cars of the Eighties blends that same unmistakeable acoustic character with performance and economy that epitomises the modern day Audi RS.

Ultra compact, and weighing in at a low 183kg, the new TFSI engine is a perfect accompaniment to the lightweight aluminium and steel hybrid TT bodyshell, helping to keep the kerb weight of the RS Coupe down to 1,450kg, and contributing to an exceptional power-to-weight ratio of 234PS per ton. This weight consciousness is reflected in a 4.6-second 0-62mph sprint time and, more unexpectedly for an overtly performance focussed sports car, in a combined fuel economy figure of 30.7 mpg. In common with many high performance Audi models, the TT RS is electronically limited at the factory to a top speed of 155mph, but for the fortunate few enjoying regular access to derestricted tarmac, the limit can be raised at extra cost to 174mph.

RS 4-style Sport button
The prodigious power is accessed by way of a new rapid-shifting six-speed close ratio manual gearbox, and the exhilarating surge triggered by each successive gear shift is enlivened by a sonorous soundtrack that is a much loved trademark of five-cylinder engines. This addictive accompaniment can be further amplified by pressing a Sport button on the transmission tunnel which not only alters throttle response but also opens a flap in the left exhaust tailpipe to further intensify the exhaust sound.

To ensure that the high levels of torque involved are employed as gainfully as possible the latest incarnation of the hydraulic multi-plate-clutch-based quattro system designed specifically for transverse engine installations oversees measured transmission to the four driven wheels. The hydraulic clutch is capable of directing the majority of torque from front to rear if sensors deem this necessary.

The equilibrium made possible by quattro drive and by the counterbalancing effect of positioning the hybrid body's 31% steel content (Roadster 42%) towards the rear contributes to a feeling of exceptional neutrality on challenging roads. The sophisticated, aluminium-intensive McPherson strut front and four-link rear suspension with RS-specific settings backs this up with incredible agility and composure.

At extra cost the standard sports chassis can also be equipped with the Audi magnetic ride adaptive damping system incorporating sophisticated dampers filled with a magnetorheological fluid containing minute magnetic particles that can be influenced by an electromagnetic field. By applying a voltage to the system's electromagnets, the viscosity of the fluid is altered by the affected magnetic particles, increasing resistance to damper movement to iron out pitch and roll when necessary, and reducing resistance when ride comfort takes precedence.

ESP with Sport mode
The reassurance to drive the TT with the conviction that befits an RS model is provided by sizeable ventilated disc brakes with black four-piston aluminium callipers and diameters of 370mm at the front and 310mm at the rear. The Electronic Stabilization Program (ESP) adds to that reassurance without excessively numbing performance or dulling feedback and adjustability thanks to its Sport mode, which prevents the system from retarding engine output to monitor traction and delays braking intervention for as long as possible. ESP can also be fully switched off.

From their sizeable, air-gulping front intakes, through extended side sills and stunning 18-inch 5 twin-spoke alloy wheels to the downforce-maximising fixed rear spoiler and enlarged oval tailpipes, the latest TTs signal intent but with a degree of restraint that is in keeping with Audi RS tradition. Customers wanting to keep the lowest possible profile can even opt to replace the fixed rear spoiler with a more discreet version which raises and retracts automatically.

Inside, the highly favoured TT sports interior is finished exclusively in black, with brushed aluminium inlays and aluminium footrests and pedals providing contrast and RS logos adorning the heated Silk Nappa leather sports seats, the thickly-rimmed flat-bottomed steering wheel, the rev counter and the door sill trims. True to Audi RS form, the standard Driver's Information System has additional displays for boost pressure and oil temperature, and also includes a lap timer for circuit use.

Customers looking for maximum differentiation can add 19-inch or 20-inch wheels, bucket seats with folding backrests and even Ibis White or Phantom black painted interior inlays at extra cost, in addition to the latest navigation and multimedia options.
