Audi TT Roadster Final Edition Pays Homage To Iconic Model Line

Audi sends the TT to the great Beyond with one last special edition.

Earlier this year, Audi announced its intention to kill the TT and R8. But, before the TT officially exits stage left, Audi commemorates the TT’s model line with the TT Roadster Final Edition. It’s green, and pretty and pays homage to the iconic first-generation Audi TT.

Limited to just 50 units, and only for the United States, the TT Roadster Final Edition starts life as a normal Audi TT Roadster. For the Final Edition, Audi has integrated the S-line appearance package to the Roadster, a first for the third-generation Audi TT roadster. That package adds sporty front and rear bumpers, side skirts, and stylish 20-inch wheels. The whole car is painted Audi exclusive Goodwood Green pearl effect paint, a paint color offered on the original Audi TT, offset by the grey convertible top. To maintain exclusivity, the Audi removed the S-line badges.

The interior nods to the original TT, too. The seats are covered in Palomino Brown leather, a modern take on the TT’s original baseball seats. All of the brushed aluminum accents have been replaced with carbon fiber.

Otherwise, the TT Final Edition is about the same as any other TT Roadster. It has the same 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder good for 228 horsepower, and a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission sending power to all four wheels. The special, Final Edition of the TT will cost $68,895, including the destination fee.

We think it’s very sad that yet another small sporty coupe is canceled, but this seems like the best way for the TT to go out. The Final Edition is a great way for Audi to pay homage to an iconic line of cars.
