Although delivery of the TT started with a limited number of colours (black, blue and silver for the Coupé), quite a few variants have been introduced over the years. Green is not the same through years as, for example, red, blue and black. You can also see differences between the Coupé and Roadster. Nimbusgrau has always been reserved as a standard option for the Roadster, for example. And can only be found as a special promotion on the Coupé. Below is an overview of the TT colours through time and with distinctions for the Coupé and Roadster.
A total of 35 official colours can be found in the Netherlands from the TT.
