2019 Audi TT RS

The interior of the TT is spacious compared to the Z, so it took a bit of seat adjustment and time to get comfortable driving it. It probably has to do with the insane amount of visibility and feeling the Gs a bit more. Driving in a muscle car or a Vette that sensation is even more pronounced, so I guess I just like driving smaller cars.

Getting to 60 is instantaneous now, so I imagine that the R8 would mean the loss of my license. I would see the R8 as track car as it probably would make daily driving pretty boring.

Even though I probably would get used to it, I feel that the Vette would never be the right fit for me on a few different levels. I like that you see very few Zs and even fewer TTs on the road. There is something to that. Although I have to say that I haven't had a Vette driver act like a fool around me in the Z that I can recall.

Glad you enjoyed the little review.

Also I don't know how old you are, but I hate the stigma of driving a Corvette. I much prefer to have a lower key car, well unless someone gives me a Ferrari. If you live in teh Bay Area, you will see Model 3 everywhere. They are more common than Camrys now

In regard to lower key; if I were to order a TT RS I probably would have gone with the spoiler delete. Don't get me wrong, the fixed spoiler is really sharp looking, and it is probably the best stock one I have seen, especially with the cool winglets, but the TT looks amazing with the pop-up one and it would be a true sleeper.

Teslas are pretty common here in Colorado as well. We are kind of east California nowadays anyway, but I think people don't spend the type of money on cars that bay area people do.

You can have a career in motorsports journalism! Imo.

I also miss my Z. I should have not sold it but the wife wanted a SUV so I did bought her one! Now she wants a divorce!!! Lol

Well I have to agree with your comments about the Corvette vs the TT and 370Z
I liked driving the Z better at the dragon I feel confident and probably drove faster than the Corvette its like driving a very fast tank.. not that is heavy actually the C7 is lighter than the Z yet with shorter WB the Z is nimble and composed.

The C7 has rediculous power but it wasn’t as fun as the Z. Yes the c7 is a looker.
But nobody drives it faster than 70 miles at the highway! Otherwise you get a snare of a look from grandpa!

Again nice write up.. I wonder how the R8 v10 feels like?
