Sports car

My mate has recently bought a new shape Audi TT, when I asked why he had bought a TT he told me he had bought it because he had always wanted a sports car, my reply was I wouldn't classify the TT as a sports car, as my definition of a sports car is something with 2 seats and rear wheel drive, was just wondering if other people on here would class the TT as a sports car and also what your definition of a sports car would be.

Gay hole

Iconic design........but not a sports car by any stretch of the imagination. I'll admit I nearly got one to replace my 2.8L BM, but once I'd driven the TT for 10 mins, I gave my head a shake, bought the red Blob and kept it for 7 yrs. Nuff said.

i wouldnt class them as sports car no way,but sayin that i would class it as a 2 seater as whats point in them rear seats,were they purpose built for the pet dog or cat cause u couldn fit jack shit else in there

I would class an Audi TT as a ponces car not a sports car. To me a sports car is something more lotus like.

tvr nat thats a sports car.

Definately a posers car! I agree with natski and Sid lotus, tvr they are proper sports cars

Subaru BRZ ??? NO

If its not British it's not a sports car

The ultimate sports car that was ever produced the E Type Jag..
That will never be beaten in terms of sports car err ism

Steve, does your mate come on here?

Reason I ask is because one person has voted yes to class the TT as a sports car...................

I saw that too Phil and I thought it strange as I havent seen Hardy logged on for a while

it was me who voted yes
I really like those cars

u sure ur alright from accident bud lol

yes, well I think

Well the voting looks pretty conclusive as I thought it would be, with only 1 vote for yes so far (that vote can be discounted though as the person has recently had a bump to the head and may still be delusional )

I will admit that the TT is a nice car to look at and is nice inside but is usually driven by hairdresser's (where's hardy when you need him ) but is definitely not a sports car.

I would also agree that true sports cars are the likes of Lotus and Tvr etc.

Wonder what response a vote would get if it was on an Audi forum

Depends on the model but IMO not a proper sports car!! More like a poofs car/hair dressers (comments not wanted)

lol poor keffer

am sure in a couple of days or so he will come back and ask to change his vote lol

NO I stay with what I voted
I even got a 1/10th scale model of one

It's just the 2litre base model that he has bought so hasn't even got much power at 200bhp

if it has a rear spoiler then its a sports car (like my vauxhall astra 1.6 lol) so im with u keffer lol

The Audi TT drivers are good for one thing and one thing only......
Humiliating

Why do they even bother trying it on

OHHHHH NOOOOOO 2 votes whats goin on with the world

Is the 2ltr a base model? thought there was a 1.8T under that model? And don't Audi advertise it as a sports car on their site?

His car is a 2006 model so the 2litre was the base model for that year as they didn't start making the 1.8 till a couple of years later, yes Audi do sell it as a sports car but they would so they can sell more, the TT had won this years Whatcar coupe of the year for 2013 so it's a coupe not a sports car

See what you mean but I don't think the drive train being front or rear makes a difference,
because you could argue if it has 4 wheel drive it would be a land rover
