The Truth About Cars have published a review fo the Audi TT-S. 'Although the TT-S carries a "quattro" badge, it's not the traditional longitudinal engine and Torsen center differential found in other Audis. Instead, there's a more Rube Goldbergesque arrangement that transfers power just a beat or two behind the moment when it's needed. As a consequence, there are no tail-out antics to be had in a TT. In fact, antics of any kind are in short supply. To get the most out of a TT-S, simply floor the throttle on the straight, brake at the ABS threshold to the turn-in point using your left foot while squeezing the left paddle five or six times (it will not select too low of a gear) and then floor the throttle again as you pass the apex.'
