VIDEO: Audi TT RS meets the Quattro

Posted by Hootan Mahallati | September 28, 2009 | In audi videos

How much justice does the first 5-cylinder Audi in a very long time do to the legacy of the defining Audi sports car, the legendary Quattro of the eighties? Autocar attempts to find in this video.

The TT RS (pardon the lack of video, Fifth Gear has removed it from YouTube), of course, is one of those cars Audi denies us here in America. Quite simply, there would not be enough sales volume for this special TT to warrant Audi bringing it here. Therefore, we will just have to enjoy it from afar. To refresh your memory, here are the vital stats:

Engine: 2.5L turbocharged inline-5
Transmission: 6-speed manual
Horsepower: 340 hp
Torque: 332 lb-ft
0-60 mph: 4.6 seconds
Price: equivalent to $65,800 in the UK
