AUDI TT RS vs Nissan 370Z

ianthegreat · 12-23-2009, 08:09 AM

I would buy this Audi in a heartbeat. I love the new styling - fit and finish is right there with porsche and bmw. However, I feel it is a bit overpriced. I would consider it in the 40k to 50k range - the latter being fully loaded. On the bright side, we are over looking the turbo - a $500 chip and it will be pushing 400whp+ spanking us all.

There are just too many cars putting down 300whp+ in the 35k-45k range for me to justify this one. Even some luxury sport coupes in this range.

The one big thing we're over looking is the turbo. A $500 chip and it will be pushing 400whp+ on relatively light chasis.

Thats true, I got 50 hp and 80tq from the chip but I only had FWD and launching was hard to do to get the benifits from it, but once I was going it was nice till the small turbo runs out of gusto. The TTS is $45K and has a slightly bigger turbo, 0 60 in 4.9 secs, chip it exhaust 0 60 in 4.5.

Now a SC or turbo in the Z and look out, it will fly.

Yea I'm still waiting to see a turbo kit or SC kit come to fruition, at least reasonably priced. That will make the 370z such a beast. Would like to run some!!

I've never had a problem running the stillen SC'd 350's at the track.

We all know the new VQ is a different animal though.
