�	Home/1000 TT, TTS					�
In September 1965 NSU introduced the Prinz 1000 TT with 1.085 ccm capacity, 55 HP and a top speed of approximately 150 km/h, which was noticeable by its unusually sporty handling. The vehicle of the lower middle class distinguised itself by double headlight, talbot mirror, and following the Flower power movement, by its sharp colours. Already 1967 the second version followed with 1.177 ccm capacity and 65 HP, whose name to was shortened NSU TT, with a maximum speed of 155 km/h and an acceleration of 0 to 100 in an impressive 15 seconds. The temperamental road performances combined with the high engine weight resulted in a large potential for the quite light car, even though it had some bad points: loud exhaust noise, cross-wind-sensitive handling and the tail breaking out (the reason it got the nick name "Heckschleuder" or "Tail Spinner").
