The softer rear and stiffer front sway bars will give the car more understeer, thus
bring it closer to its Skoda roots ;-)
The rear spoiler will spoil the look but help a bit with the rear end lift.
The car you test drove does already have the first modification since
introduction of the TT - 20 kg lead under the trunk to help with the balance
(Vorsprung durch Technik).

Who thinks that the TT Coupe is an interesting and clear design statement, but
