antman22

I still think the 370z is far better looking than the TT RS. The numbers are excellent, i bet even better as im sure it weighs less, but lets see where the price starts. THe Z will most likely be a better buy

Red370

weighs the same as a base Z.

So many people seem to be "settling" on the Z... Do us all a favor and sell your car if you're just hanging on for the "meantime." I for one am content.

Red370

I'm noticing that alot lately, which is beyond me, being that our car is under 2 years old... Although it seems the OP doesnt have a 370.

His profile says he drives a Maxima, but his first post eludes to owning a 2009 370z.


Sigh.. Hating on the Z is at an all time high.

Red370

By our own forum members, its a mutiny I say! And even with talks of trading for a Mustang, and one even trading his in for a GTI

I cross shopped the GTI before I got my Z. I loved the Z compared to the GTI, granted it was chipped..But still it's really apples to oranges in that respect. Funny thing is, I remember reading a long thread over on a GTI forum and a majority of the members chose the 370z over their own GTI's as far as performance goes. The only ones who chose the GTI were because they could haul stuff in them.

My dad just picked up a 2011 TTS roadster in bright orange. Apparently it's the only one in the country. And I have to say, it looks HOT. I'm a little jealous...he refused a trade for my Z. At least my Z still sounds better with the Stillen exhaust and HFCs.

I'm letting him pamper it for a couple weeks. Next weekend, I'm going to show him what it can do. Looking forward to trying the dual clutch flappy paddle gearbox and magneto dampers.

TTS will beat him even stock, chipped Z gets embarresed.

13.2 1/4 mile is not beating him. With all wheel drive it would just get worse after the 1/4 mile.

If they are still using quattro the way they were its only 4 wheel when needed and the fwd if not.

The Z doesnt do 1/4 mile in 13.2 stock, alittle slower I think, Plus with the quattro a every day driver can achieve more consistant times than a Z driver with RWD.

The OP's picture is of a TT-S, not the TT-RS which I have added below:

I will say that this car is bad ***, can't agrue... But I still think a TT or Supercharged 370z would spank it.

2010 Audi TT-RS by AVUS Performance




As we know the TT-RS is a very special model in Audi’s line-up. With its five cylinders, four wheels drive and plenty of horsepower, the ultimate TT-RS sports coupe possesses the same magical combination of qualities as the legendary ”Ur-Quattro”. Audi TT-RS stock engine produces 340 hp and 332 lb/ft of torque, which makes the timer stop at 4.6 seconds for the classical 0-60 mph sprint.



AVUS PERFORMANCE took Audi’s ultimate sports coupe performance at the next level. The specialists at AVUS improved the power, aerodynamics and vision of the vehicle. With an adjustable coilovers and gloss black 20“ Sportec Mono wheels with special setup, the AVUS PERFORMANCE TT-RS looks more aggressive and run a lot smoother over counrty roads and race track.



AVUS tuner also boosted the engine to the stunning 460bhp and more than 472 lb/ft of torque. With these numbers the 0-60 sprint lasts only 3.8 seconds and the top speed increases to 194mph. True to the motto „Gloss is out, matt is IN“, the tuner AVUS PERFORMANCE painted the striking TT-RS in matt black (other colors avaiable on request).



Enter Audi’s range-topping TT-RS. As you probably already know, the aggressively styled 340-hp, 332 lb-ft turbo five-cylinder sportscar isn’t available this side of the Atlantic. Audi says it demolishes the 60 mph mark in around 4.6 seconds and has a limited top speed of 155 mph.



Give it the full Avus treatment and the beast becomes a certifiably tarmac terror with 460 hp and 472 lb-ft of torque on tap that’s said to send it to 60 mph in the 3.8 sec range. Quick, yes, but is it fast? Try a top speed of 194 mph.
These astonishing performance claims come thanks to a bigger turbo setup, reflashed ECU, and a less restrictive exhaust system. Adding in the adjustable coilovers, stickier Hankook rubber, 20-in. forged Sportec Mono wheels, and matte black livery makes this TT-RS one serious badass.



With a stock power of 340bhp and 332 lb/ft of torque it is capable of doing the 0-60 in 4.6s. AVUS PERFORMANCE takes it a step forward and improves the power and the look of the TT-RS. Adjustable coilovers, gloss black 20″ Sportec Mono wheels make the TT-RS look much more aggressive. Thanks to the special setup which improves the factory suspension even further and makes the TT run a lot smoother not only on country roads. Different setups for the race track are avaiable either.



he matt black skin is something you will probably notice first when seeing the TT-RS. True to the motto „Gloss is out, matt is IN” tuner AVUS PERFORMANCE changes it to matt black (other colors avaiable on request). To give the TT-RS the final touch for the race track power has been increased significantly to a stunning 460bhp and more than 472 lb/ft of torque. 0-60 will be passed in about 3.8s and top speed increases to 194mph. Therefore AVUS PERFORMANCE modifies the turbo, ECU software and the exhaust system from turbo back with racing cats.
Price List:
matt black „vinyl“ – 1.999 Euro
coilovers – 1.299 Euro
modified ECU + exhaust system (460bhp / 472lb/ft) – price on request
gloss black 20“ wheels with 255/30/20 Hankook S1 Evo – 6.400 Euro
