in the local newspaper they wrote that it will have 360 HP and will be ultra light. in this article, the HP is less.

discuss.

This makes me even more pissed at myself for missing the Chicago show this year.

Looks like a sick car, nonetheless.

Seems to me like the "RS" tag should have a little more beefiness to it. For example, S4- about 330 HP, RS4- 430HP. I'm not sure it they could have fit the 4.2TFSI in that little car, but anything under 400 horses probably shouldn't get the "RS" tag.

discuss further

But 400hp for a car that weighs 3200lbs? That seems excessive. I also think comparing TTS to TTRS is misleading because they don't use the same engine.
