Nothing like a Cobra.  The Cobra had nice lines, although a little 
exagerated.  The TTs is like an upside down half-a-grapefruit with TSW 
wheels under it.  The kind of 'car' a kindergarten child would draw.  It 
has NO style whatsoever.

No rear seats in the TTs.  I don't know about the TT coupe.
