"That omission aside, the TT 3.2 quattro is not missing much. The torquey, narrow-angle V6 is the same VR engine used in Volkswagen’s R32 and Porsche’s entry-level Cayenne, and churns out 236 lb-ft at 2800 to 3200 rpm. This powerplant is precisely what the car begged for since its introduction. Throttle response is Ginsu sharp, and Audi claims a 0-to-60-mph time of 6.4 seconds. Really, though, it is in the mid and upper ranges where this V6 TT feels most fun, even during automatic operation. Activate the full auto sport mode, which mimics an aggressive manual driving style by automatically blipping the throttle for downshifts, and selecting—and holding—the lowest practical ratio for any speed (you can manually select gears in auto mode by tapping a paddle)."
