The uniquely hemispherical profile of the TT was career-defining for its creators, J. Mays and Freeman Thomas, and it gave it an unmistakable presence on the road. After that, the well-tailored interior with optional baseball stitching on the leather seats was a bonus. At its debut in 1999, you could get this "rolling work of art" for $33,724. Updated models continue to be produced, albeit at less affordable prices.
