I test drove the Audi TT 2.0T FSI Quattro TTS 2dr S Tronic version before the Z4 M40i and came away feeling exactly this.

No HUD or centre console screen was a minus also for me.

I wanted to really like the tt as since it's conception I have always admired its design but it really wasn't the car for me.
The TT was an icon for its time.

I remember being completely wowed by the TT.

It clearly didn't evolve enough or Audi wouldn't be killing it.
I think being stuck with a transverse engine and being part of the VW group and not being able to outshine the Boxster are the two things leading to its death. And it should never be a convertible. Looks okay as a coupe.
