StarLight Garage suggests automobile gems to be included in the Gran Turismo Series. The german Audi TT by ABT sportsline from 2015 is one of those cars.
Although female often driving this car, a man can also take place behind the wheel in these 'mean' powerful black Audi TT by ABT with red lipstick.

Essen Motor Show 2013:
"Guten Morgen, meine Damen und Herren ... hier ist die ABT Audi TT".
"Viele spaß!"

The Audi TT Coupé may now be seen as a design icon. And actually you should not be too much a design icon. Especially not when subtlety is not in your vocabulary.

Abt Sportsline has burned to our sense of the third generation Audi TT.
A little bit thicker front bumper is fine and that fixed rear spoiler is looking fantastic, but with the red paint is one quite slipped. All parts Abt added were done in bright red on the TT Coupé. There is one advantage: you have to be an expert to discover what ABT has added to the car.

Their first tuning project for the coupe started with the base four-cylinder 2.0 TFSI engine which in its latent state makes 230 HP (169 kW) and 370 Nm (272 lb-ft). After an overdose of remapping and turbo boost, that number has jumped to 310 HP (228 kW) and 440 Nm (324 lb-ft) of torque, which coincidentally is the same as the more hardcore TTS.
That is an increase of 80 hp and 70 Nm. Not wrong.

The discrete and simple nature of the TT coupe has been killed and replaced with brash combinations of straight lines, deep air intakes and red accents sprinkled thought. The ABT version of the TT looks instantly different, unmistakably German and quite dangerous, like one of those Amazonian snakes you know are deadly.

ABT has revised the front end with a new grille, lower bumper blade and red inserts for the side air intakes. The body kit also includes vented mirror caps in red, a new fixed rear wing and a skirt insert featuring two extra side attachments that give a 3D effect.

The final piece of the puzzle is the metallic one. The standard exhaust system with twin pipes has been replaced by a throaty quad one with black tips. ABT also added a coilover suspension kit and replaced the standard alloy wheels with a 20-inch DR set sending Continental rubber to the road.

The body kit is awesome, especially the front inserts, which make the TT look like a baby RS7. But with so much red on the car, isn't ABT playing into the hairdresser's car stereotype by putting lipstick on the car?

................I'm conflicted; on the one hand, I wouldn't mind seeing more Abts in the game, but the flip side here is I don't like TTies at all. First gen TTies were actually not bad looking, if only driven by hairdressers and yuppies (or by Hugh Grant's character from About A Boy) but second gen onwards they lost their distinctive appeal and now suffer from a well-known ailment called "Audi Photocopier Syndrome". From the back, this car looks....FAT!!
