New 2009 Audi TT Clubsport Low Prices Lease Payment Limited Edition Models Available with Worldwide Delivery





REIFNITZ, Austria — Audi appears to be gearing up for a limited-production run of its red-hot TT Clubsport Quattro, first shown a year ago as a concept at the 2007 Wörthersee Tour. For this year's enthusiast meet, the open-cockpit two-seater is being shown in production-ready garb.


Audi has made mainly detail changes to the car, including a strip of LED daytime running lights under the headlamps, a larger windshield with thicker A-pillars, beefier rollover bars and revised mirrors and rear bumper. The powertrain is impressive: The familiar turbocharged 2.0-liter TFSI four-cylinder engine has been massaged to deliver more than 295 horsepower and is mated to a seven-speed S tronic dual-clutch gearbox. The car sits on a wider track than the production TT and rides on 255/35R19 sport tires. The cockpit is clad in orange leather with orange-and-white graphics on the instrument cluster. Shift paddles, door pulls and pedals are made of aluminum. The exterior is finished in Suzuka Gray. In typically coy German PR-speak, the company notes that "small-series production of this model cannot be ruled out."
