This is the 2011 Audi TT (http://www.autoblog.com/model/tt). It looks the same, it steers the same and it sticks the same. But there's one major difference: torque. Audi (http://www.autoblog.com/make/audi/) has managed to coax an additional 51 pound-feet of twist (http://www.autoblog.com/2010/04/07/audi-shows-off-revised-2011-tt-with-updated-four-cylinder-power/) from its ever-evolving 2.0-liter TFSI four cylinder. The result? The standard TT isn't just the Bauhaus design icon that propelled Audi into the luxury limelight at the end of the last decade - it's finally a proper sports car. And it's about damned time. Follow the jump (http://www.autoblog.com/2010/05/14/2011-audi-tt-first-drive/#continued) to see what we're torquing about.
