alot of stuff goes into consideration not just weight and power. aerodynamic drag, suspension, tires, and other factors come into play also when it comes to straight line performance. Yes I am aware that AWD drivetrain losses may be higher but that doesn't mean the drivetrain in the MS3 is on par performance-wise with the one in the TT-S. I myself have an altima coupe with the V6 and I've raced him and he blows my car out of the water at any speed. Sure my car is around 100 lbs heavier than the TT-S but I believe the MS3 would be a more suitable competitor to my Altima than the TT-S
