Audi TT RS – Geneva Motor Show Debut

The auto world is abuzz with the showcase of the 2009 Audi TT RS, debuting this month at the Geneva Motor Show in Switzerland. Standing shoulder-to-shoulder with industry heavyweights like Rolls-Royce, Bentley, and Mercedes-Benz, Audi’s latest sport vehicle is a worthy competitor for attention. Its 2.5 liter turbo, 5-cylinder engine touts 340 bhp and 331 lb.-ft of torque.

The Coupe and Roadster models reach 100 km/h in 4.6 and 4.7 seconds respectively and are officially rated for a top speed of 155 mph, but can be tweaked if you ask the salesperson nicely. It has switchable Electronic Stabilization, standard 18-inch wheels, all-wheel drive, and a 6-speed gearbox to give your adrenaline a workout. Though not initially slated for US distribution, with no word on an MSRP, the new TT is sure to be a popular choice for sports car enthusiasts later this year. Find more info here.
