"  The newest of the Audi TT Models, the TTS, proves to be the quickest of them all. The new, 2.0-liter turbocharged and direct-injected inline Four makes the relatively light (at 3075 pounds) TTS a 272-hp speedster. And compared to the turbocharged four cylinder with &amp;quot;normal&amp;quot; fuel injection, the TTS motor gets an overhauled bottom end with stronger components along with a freer flowing exhaust. With a six-speed manual transmission, Audi says it will hit 0-100 km/h (62.14 mph) in 5.4 seconds. Not too shabby.   The European TTS comes standard with the six-speed manual and a lightweight magnesium transmission housing. But, alas, the United States version comes solely with a S-tronic manumatic transmission. But that&amp;#039;s okay, because the transmission deploys six gears with twin clutches so you can change gears in a mere 0.2 seconds. The S-tronic allows paddle shifting on the steering wheel\u2014similar to Audi&amp;#039;s R8 R-tronic gearbox. So what about fuel economy? Well, the TTS is said to average 29.7 mpg\u2014nearly as high as some &amp;quot;economy&amp;quot; cars.   Since it&amp;#039;s an Audi, the Quattro permanent all-wheel drive makes the TTS a speedy foul-weather friend. But the swift surefootedness can also be accredited to a newly engineered pressure reservoir, which allows the hydraulic multi-plate clutch in the all-wheel-drive system to work faster than any other TT model\u2014milliseconds, Audi says, for torque to be transferred from front to rear.   Weight is the enemy of any sports car. And since the TTS uses a light, 337-pound 4 cylinder, the handling should be enhanced compared to other TT models. Adaptive magnetic shocks offer two settings\u2014standard and sport\u2014to suit road conditions. In sport mode, it actually lowers the body by 10 mm. Typical of stealthy speed machines, the TTS exterior is not a whole lot different from previous TT models. The subtle changes are in the grill, headlights, rounded rear and more prominent sculpted doorsills. Inside, you&amp;#039;ll find deep-set sport seats and a mixture of soft leather and Alcantara.   The 2009 Audi TTS will be available this fall as both a coupe and a roadster, but it will come pinned with a fairly hefty price tag of $66,079 (for the hard-top TTS) and $70,274 (for the convertible version). Nonetheless, we can&amp;#039;t wait for a ride. \u2014Brittany Marquis "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
