Steep price increase compared to the MK 2
Since the engine in the 2011+ base Mk 2 was grossly underspeced, The engine in the base Mk 3 is likely little, if any, improvement over the Mk 2. So you are paying for the state of the art dash and better handling. The TTS gets a 10% HP boost that might justify the increase.
I like that the spare tire is back.
The purchase question for me when the time comes will be to get a new TT versus a late model low mileage corvette for the same price

$2500 to $3200 increase per model. Less of an increase than the European market. Except for MY 2016 sales to folks wanting the next new thing, I don't see the increase, or the car itself, helping to change the TTs dismal sales in the US.

Priced very close to A5 Coupe (which will remain more popular simply because of size and body style).
No change but 5.3 sec to 60 mph seems good enough for most people I'd think.
