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. |

I want a RSTT so bad, but I just can't justify the Audi tax. Not worth the money.

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