Your point?

The one bad thing I have heard about the TTS was some turbo lag with it being a 4 cyl with a K04 turbo (somewhat large). I wonder if having the extra cyl (and Im sure the TT RS is still using a K04) stops some of that lag. If it comes to the US and I had the money I would think hard about it. But I will never have the $$$ for a $60K to $70K car.

Now Nisaan put a SC or turbo in the Z, give it DSG and AWD and now your talkin. Love the body of the 370Z best of all so far from Nissan.

The TTS is a 4 cyl but the TT RS is a 5 cyl. Both use a K04 turbo I think.

I dont think they are really trying to make super fast cars just high quality comfortable sports cars that are quick and lux.

No, shaba', that's hardcore economic reality down at Puerto Rico, U.S.A.! That's why I keep telling youse guys to consider yourselves blessed for living in the continental U.S. Our politician$, with few exception$ are douchebag$ that provide the least public services (our roads are like the lunar surface!), but simultaneously impose heavy taxation on us. It's a dead-end street OR migrating to the Mainland. Cheers, and may God bless all of you in 2010, dudes!

your intakes sure are different looking than when I bought one for my MKI. Looks better now.

How can you compare two cars with one costing twice as much as the other?

The only winning aspect of the Z is it's price and reliability. The TTRS has all the rest IMO
