ALL things considered, the TTRS LOOKS AWESOME! Especially in Phantom Black with larger 'Rotors' (Fast and Easy to CLEAN!) showing the large cross-drilled discs! Add 6 Spd Manual and Awesome Wheel Drive and wife is so happy she bought it!

Strange that the RS3 is so much faster than TTRS on the autozeitung track

autozeitung's results are strange sometimes, for example the merc cl65 taking 1:49.40 to go round the track
