Seeing how stupidly fast the ttrs are with a few tweeks at Gti it'd still either be one of those for me or something porsche shaped - quite fond of caymans at the minute.

Was at an Audi dealership to do with work last week, they always have the latest bling. Must admit, this RS3 looks aggressive on the front end. The wheels dont look as crap in person.

Christ. peeing money up the wall. I need to save for a deposit on a house. Still if you got it, flaunt it.

I've decided if there's another TTRS going round in Solar, I'm interested. But not yet at all. I've leant more towards the TTRS than an A5 recently.

It'd be nice to get the interior from the TTS orange, but think the TTRS has it's own interior styling:

I'd love to take one of the Tesla's out for a spin. I remember seeing their dealership at the back of some side street in London.

The Wonderfull thing about Tiggers is I am the only one ! :lol:

There are 5 Solar Orange TT RS's. And only 1 of them is RHD. If you want one it would have to be a factory order. Personally I'm quite happy with the number of Soral Orange TT RS's in the UK :P

Wigit :wow: I love it you have to get it in that colour too though :D
mind you they look great in most bright colours

Hybrid turbos....500bhp now!

And they were no faster down the strip with hybrid turbo's than they were with maps and pipes last year... infact last year one did 3.15 to 60 this years best was 3.22.
The Turbos havent really improved the 1/4 mile times but im sure the diffrence would show @ a V max event

I'm sure someone will order one before the year is out just ripe enough for me to grab it in a couple of years possibly.
