So are you telling me that the Audi TT-S is as fast as the 370Z then despite having a 70 hp disadvantage and the same weight? AWD cars are always going to be fast from a standstill acceleration test. It's the roll-on acceleration that gets them. I also see you managed to find the slowest numbers for the Mazda. Below are figures for the Mazda from Road and Track with links.

Road and Track:
RoadandTrack.com -- Long Term Road Tests - Long-term 2007 Mazdaspeed3 Modified! (11/2008)

MS3
0-60 5.7 sec
0-100 13.8 sec
0-120 20 sec
1/4 14.1 sec at 101mph

MS3 with intake alone (Road and Track's car)
0-60 5.5
0-100 13.1
1/4 13.9 at 103mph

The only time the Audi is going to be faster than the MS3 is from a standstill--that's the benefit of AWD. The Audi practically ties the 370Z from a stop to 100 mph as well but the Z is obviously the faster car.
