Gas version is nose heavy. (Like most Audis).
Haldex Quattro is heavy and front wheel drive biased.
Diesel engines are heavier, meaning the Audi is even more nose heavy than its petrol counterpart and less powerful.
The diesel engine has 170HP which is just ridiculously slow for a 'sports car'.
Audi diesels are $$$. I wouldn't be surprised if this car cost somewhere upwards of $42K.
That defeats the whole purpose of having a diesel.]]>Mar 4th 2008 8:13PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/04/geneva-2008-audi-tt-2-0-tdi-quattro/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/04/geneva-2008-audi-tt-2-0-tdi-quattro/
The TT is not more nose heavy as other cars with travers mounted 4 banger...

60/40% TT Mk I
58/42% TT MKII

that is the same as

2008 Mitsubishi Lancer 60/40
2004 Subrau WRX STI 58/42

never heared a internetkid claiming both nose heavy with exactly the same nose heavy layout as the TT

60/40 in the old TT MKI is better as

better as 2008 Honda Civic SI Coupe with 61/39%
better as Accura TSX 67/33%

not to talk about the 58/42% of the new MK II

This TT quattro TDI weights 3030lbs
2007 RX-8 2970lbs RWD
2005 WRX STI 3290lbs AWD
2008 EVO X GSR 3344lbs AWD
