It was built on the beetle platform and it’s really apparent when you look at the doors.
I think the first TT is “dated” in the way that we look back at mid century modern furniture today.
It’s dated, but it still looks retro/cool. I think this is the fate of the first gen TT.
The interior of the first gen TT was super unique for its time, but not something I’d call modern. I used to daily one and it was almost too spartan to be comfortable. It did look nice though.
From that link - First gen Lexus IS, Z3M Roadster, Maserati 3200GT, 996 911, Subaru Legacy and the Volvo S80 all aged better than the first gen TT IMO.
In my opinion it’s looked dated for over a decade now. Awful looking thing. They improved upon it very quickly though.
The first gen TT looks like a beetle lol. The newer ones look nice but the first one’s exterior definitely hasn’t held up.

Nah, I have to disagree. Yes, it looks “dated” now, but it came out in 1998. Thats almost 26 years ago.
Look at this list of cars that came out at the same time: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Cars_introduced_in_1998
You will not find a car that has aged less than the Audi TT imo.
Tbf from that list the only car I can think that’s aged better is the 1st gen Lexus IS.
That thing looks like it’s from 2005 at least
RX7 FD. R32/33 GT-R. A80 Supra.

Z3M roadster and 996 lol
Yep, that’s how dated the TT looks if it can make those designs seem less dated.
Most definitely delusional to think the R32/R33 Skylines aged less than the TT
