As an b5 s4 owner i must say im biased toward the ttrs, but the 1m has 6 lap times that are quicker out of 11. The two arent direct competitors (one is 2 seats and another 4) but i can see why you would.

@jeff b
I dont hate audi, dont be ridiculous. I like german car industry in general, if you said that I hate some pathetic shit like peugeot, fiat or something like that youd be right, I do hate those shit buckets. its just that you cant comprehend in your audi fangirl mind that me, pointing out an obvious missmatch whilst laughing to audi fanlooneys here when they exibit their lunacy, am not being a fan or hater, Im just being realistic. its you, its not me lol.....

I don't see how they aren't direct competitors.
They're both each manufacturer's top of the line compact coupe, with a tiny rear seat. They both embody the essence of their respective manufacturer and they're both focused on performance and fun.
They seem like they're direct competitors to me (and that's all that matters in MY book).
