Our Take:
- Rarity and History: The NSU TT from 1969 is a gem from the past, a testament to German engineering that you just don’t see on the roads these days. NSU, before merging into what we now know as Audi, was renowned for producing compact yet sporty vehicles that punched way above their weight class, and the TT is no exception. With its roots in motorsport, it's no wonder these cars are coveted.
- Engineering Marvel: The TT features a 1200cc air-cooled engine, a hallmark of its era—reminiscent of the simplicity yet robustness that defines many classic models. Interestingly, this engine also powered the mighty Munch Mammoth motorcycle, making it a sort of two-wheeled hot rod with a chassis! The manual transmission adds to the driving charm, offering an authentic throwback experience.
- Owner Story: Being a single-owner car, it’s like flipping through a novel written by one author with no chapters missing—each journey, each mile has been part of a single storyteller’s narrative. The car being imported directly from Germany adds a layer of authenticity and maybe even a hint of romance, as if it’s seen autobahns and European vistas before hitting American soil.
- Condition and Completeness: Described as “perfect original condition,” this NSU TT sounds like it's held up beautifully under layers of time (and dust). With an assortment of spare parts, it’s like a time capsule; each piece is a puzzle connecting the past to the present. Imagine finding that missing screw or gasket, like a treasure recovered from an old shipwreck! It's practically ready for the museum circuit or a vintage car show.
