Spied: TT RS Facelift Testing

Although the TT RS was only announced in 2016, it looks like Audi Sport is already working on an update for this little fire breather.

Our spy photographers have caught a facelifted TT RS testing out in the wild and even though it’s camouflaged, there are some visual updates we can see.

For starters, the grille looks a little wider, while the headlights look a little slimmer—though that may be a trick of the eye as a result of the camouflage.

These headlights certainly do have a new LED strip for the DRLs and the side sills have grown.

‘Round back, the taillights have a new design and it looks like there are some changes happening to the back bumper.

Based on the car’s grille and wing, it’s believed this is a development mule for the TT RS, however, it’s conspicuously missing the characteristic oval tailpipes, complicating the situation, oval piped TT mules were also spotted but they didn’t have the matching rear wing.

Review: Saying Goodbye to the CC V6

For all its size and its global reach, Volkswagen is still, in many ways, a deeply human company. There was, for instance, the Bugatti Veyron an ego project if ever there was one. Then the purchase of Ducati, a move most called folly. And then there was the Phaeton, the Volkswagen that most folks can’t afford. Not only were these moves all strange, I’m sure that they made VW’s accountants furious. None of them made good business sense, but they were all deeply interesting and they all are evidence of the heart that beats at the center of VW. Among these follies is the CC, a car that everyone agrees is rakishly handsome, but that no one really wanted to buy. The car couldn’t last, but the world is brighter for its having been in it. With the approach debut of the Arteon, it seems like a good time to look back on its sadly departing predecessor. The version I drove, because I live in Canada, is a V6 Wolfsburg Edition, which apparently isn’t available in the States. Nor is the V6, not as

Waterfest Moves to Atco Dragway

Waterfest 24 will be held at Atco Dragway, in Atco, New Jersey. The summer event will take place at its new venue on July 21 and 22. Long held in Englishtown, New Jersey, the festival has been such a large part of the VW scene that the latest iteration of the Golf even comes with optional “Englishtown” wheels . The new venue, however, is an NHRA drag track a scant 52 miles southwest of Englishtown. The ¼ mile drag track opened in 1960, which makes it the oldest drag strip in New Jersey. The announcement came today on a social media post that announced the new location. Waterfest is North America’s largest VW/Audi show. As many 20,000 people show up for the annual show, making the second largest show in the world—with Worthersee being number one. 2018 will be Waterfest’s 24 th year in existence.
