As the owner of the Z, I beg to differ! My husband can't even control this car haha. He doesnt understand how a sports car works He drives a F-150

The TT-RS looks tight, especially in white. Although I have to agree, its hard to compare two cars in distinct prices brackets.

I'd admit that the 370Z can't compete with Audi on its interiors, but the TT-RS costs a whole lot more, so it'd better.

In terms of performance, for what the TT-RS will be competing against, I assume that its counting on appealing towards consumer looking for a distinctive design and a luxurious interior.

Audi isn't known for offering a good bang for the buck.

Better leave that to Ford, Chevy, & Nissan, all of which are doing so by virtue of offering the Mustang, Camaro and 370Z, respectively. Any of these three will offer some serious HP for around $35K.

not sure about the mustang or camaro being good bang for the buck. i'd say they are priced right, if not a little overpriced. but for good bang for the buck, the corvette (especially in z06 and zr1 trims) and the dodge viper (especially with acr package) are irresistible. supercar performance for a middle class guy. same with gt-r

My favorite part was " The 370 doesnt have a loud sporty sound..."

When just 15 seconds before hand, "she has to be very easy on the throttle" how are you supposed to hear an engine when its probably at less than 2500 RPMs with these genius'?

Oh well, I couldn't pay attention to anything but the one's ginormous nose. Sell the TT, get a nose job, buy a Z and enjoy!

They should have compared the GT-R and TT-RS duh.

I think the results were predictable.

The hot chick picked the 370 and the one with the Big nose picked the TT.....Hmmm

Turned this off after 30 seconds, complete waste of time and a stupid comparison in the snow.

The hotter of the two liked the 370, she knew it would make her look better while driving it than the TT would. While the dike looking chic choose the TT. Guess she was going for a power toy larger than the one she puts batteries in.

I'd like to see them repeat this test with a couple of Muppets driving instead of those two. I think we'd get more intelligent comments. They might think to mention what kind of tires they have on the cars for their "winter driving test."

Next test: These two cars will be flipped onto their roofs and taken down the chutes at Lake Placid by the Jamaican Bobsled Team. "Yah mon, I was much disappointed by de braking ability."

How is the TT 4.6 0-100kph while the Z is 5.7 0-100kph? Don't understand this at all based on other tests I've seen with the auto Z at 4.6 sec.

AWD vs RWD...it was a snow test.....duuuuuhhhhh . Given the rigorous testing they put the cars through, I'm not sure I'd take those numbers to the bank. Really hope it wasn't the two broads who were driving when they clocked those numbers either.

I think with the TTS and the TTRS being quattro (only AWD when slipping, otherwise FWD), the average driver is going to get to the best times more consistantly. The Z requires a very good driver and good throttle control on take off to get the best times. The TTRS has launch control and the quattro which makes an avg driver get those better times. The TTS is 0 60 in 4.9 secs and the TTRS is 4.5 secs from what I have seen. The Z can get 4.6 on well prepped tracks with a good take off. Using my Gtech Im getting a consistant 5 secs on a regualar road on stock tires. I havent been able to do a run since I got my FI CBE on but Im sure I would atleast get a 4.9 time.

Now chip, TBE, and CAI the TTS or the TTRS and you are looking around 4.5 for the TTS and 4.2 for the TTRS I would think.

The Quattro really is an amazing feature as it only goes AWD when the tires are slipping, then its FWD when they arent, which cuts back on the drive train loss. And the DSG is super super fast. Wish the Z had the DSG like the GTR.

What an absolutely stupid test! Sports cars tested in winter and on snow covered roads..stupid. Two clueless Mums who are more suited to driving a station wagon/SUV give their("expert")opinion?....stupid.
One Mum likes the TTRS because it has back seats....yeah for amputees!
The Audi is double the price for marginal increases in performance.
In my book the Zed trumps the overpriced Audi. I could go on about this waste of web space car "review" but I could not be stuffed.
