Giant Audi TT statue finds new home

Audi has already shown off the piano they constructed to celebrate their 100th anniversary along with the new car packages but they haven’t stopped there. What you see above is a 10-ton statue of an Audi TT that was constructed a few years ago and made its 2006 debut in Berlin.

Well, Audi has decided to give the statue a permanent home at their Ingolstadt headquarters to further their 100th anniversary celebration.

While the TT is one of Audi’s most recognizable cars I’d much rather have seen a mammoth R8, but that’s just me.

Audi celebrates 100 years with unlikely design

Posted by Jeff Baker Published in Audi, Cars

When an automaker turns 100, it only makes sense for said automaker to design something, well, auto related, right? In Audi’s case, no.

Audi has recently announced that in celebration of their 100th anniversary they will team up with Austrian piano maker Bosenorfer to manufacture the above masterpeice; a rather unique looking grand piano.

Audi’s specially designed grand piano will be put on show at their 100th anniversary party that will take place at the Audi Forum in Ingolstadt on July 16th. After the instrument is put on show it will be put on sale to the general public for around $140,000.
