In-Game Description[]
"This sports coupe captured the attention of all generations with its unique futuristic design."
Audi was hesitant at first in producing a compact 2+2, but when the TT concept was greeted enthusiastically at the 1995 Frankfurt Auto Show, the company went to work in making the car a reality, and the TT in 1998 bowed to a waiting public.
The exterior styling of the car was unique, featuring an arched roofline that was similar to the shape of Volkswagen's New Beetle. It was highlighted with a stately face, low-slung body and wide, aggressive stance.
The base engine was a 180-PS 1.8-liter DOHC inline-4, the same engine that powered the A3 and A4. But the choice for enthusiasts was a returned version with dual intercoolers that pumped out 222 HP. Because of the compact size of the TT, it was one of the most nimble cars in the marketplace. Built on the A3's platform, with the wheelbase shortened 3.5 inches, the TT displayed excellent cornering balance with a slight penchant for understeer. The choice for enthusiasts[1] was the all-wheel-drive version because of a more neutral tuning character, helped in part by the car's double wishbone rear suspension.
The TT's popularity was increased even more by an attractive convertible version in 2000 and the addition of a 3.2-liter DOHC V6 in 2003. With 247 HP on tap and mated to the company's revolutionary DSG twin-clutch semi automatic gearbox, the TT became the luxury 2+2 of choice for discerning enthusiasts.

Trivia[]
- When race modified, this car bears a striking resemblance with the Audi TT LM Edition. This car is available in different colors however: yellow, red, black, blue, and dark gray.
- This car also appears in Gran Turismo Concept, but it's unplayable. It does, however, appear as a CPU car.
- In GT3 and GT4, the car may exhibit front-wheel drive-like behavior unless a viscous limited slip differential (VCD) is purchased from the tuning shop. This is due to the car's four-wheel drive settings being improperly coded, resulting in a heavily front-biased torque split.
- In GT4, this car and the Mitsubishi GALANT GTO MR '70 are the only two (three on the PAL version of the game) cars that can brought from either the New Cars Dealership and/or the Classic Cars Dealership to be purchasable in the Used Cars Dealership, and, in the PAL version, the Vauxhall Tigra 1.6i '99.
