personally i think the stock TT is an aerodynamicly irrelevant car, sure the font looks nice and smooth as do all new audi's (apart from these huge grills they have lately), but what where they thinking at the back? seems like they just reused the front.. i think at least one person must have gotten in the wrong way round

i heared some race driver even managed to flip one of the early models at high speed, after wich they fitted a small lip spoiler at the back as standerd on the later models to cure the flow separation

since audi has a long standing history of good aero, and some of their new, and old, cars have really exemplary Cd's i really can't see how they justified this design... well i can, because as a shape it looks really nice... reminds me of a computer mouse designed by apple or something, but aerodynamicly it's a desaster

as for the modded one... i think the integrated dog cage is a nice feature
