Not crazy bout it compared to the normal TT. The single frame grille kills the front end imo. I think it'd look better if the bottom portion of the grille wasn't there (the part beneath the license plate bracket).

I have mixed feelings about Audi grilles. For example, I think the RS4 looks amazing. The huge grille with honeycomb mesh looks great aswell as the aggressive front intakes and the rest of the styling. What I'm not a fan of is the fact that nearly all Audi's have the same headlights/grille/side intakes setup.

I think Audi have limited themselves to what they can do with front end designs because of the huge grille. Sometimes I see cars like the old A8 and think how good it looks without the HUGE grille. It's a shame because Audi have great interiors and the rest of the bodywork is perfect. They just limit themselves to what they can do with the front end.

Anyway, back to the TT-S. I actually think it looks great. The arches, the wheels, sideskirts, front bumper all perfect. You are right about the grille though.

I give it two thumbs down but hey thats just my un-bias opinion. Ill wait and see performance figures though.

Wow, looks pretty good. Too bad they don't sell it here.

I reckon the TTS will look stunning in the fresh, the S5 look-a-like alloys and the quad pipes set it off a treat. Also knowing how potent the wife's GTI can be with only 200hp putting it along fills me with great expectations for the TTS with an extra 70hp and quattro doing it's thing.

For someone looking a very stylist and capable coupe, you could do a lot worse and I will bet it's more than a match for the Z4 3.0Coupe which apart from anything else, it looks a hack of a lot better looking to start with.

If the TTRS ever does come along I reckon the Z4M Coupe will have to play second fiddle in much the same way as the M5 is doing now against the RS6.
