New TT "Sport" model...

According to the article at VW Vortex
(http://www.vwvortex.com/artman/publi...cle_1212.shtml)
Audi will be releasing a lighter weight TT, powered by a 240 horsepower
version of the 1.8T, and capable of a 5.9 second 0-60 run. Although
this is certainly an appealing idea, it isn't as interesting as it
might be considering the fairly recent existence of the TT 3.2, which
also tests with a 0-60 time of around 5.9 seconds, and doesn't exhibit
any turbo lag. I'm a little curious as to why this model is being
produced? If anyone has any insight, I'd like to hear it, because with
the 3.2 avaliable, the possibility of "chiiping" the less expensive 225
model and the avaliability of the $29,000 R32, I'm not sure that this
model makes any sense.
