Avus Audi TT

Avus Performance has unveiled a new tuning package for the Audi TT-RS.

Dubbed the "new Ur-Quattro," the car features a modified ECU, a revised turbocharger, and a high performance exhaust system with racing catalysts. While this doesn't sound like much, the changes enable the 2.5-liter five-cylinder engine to produce 460 bhp and more than 472 lb-ft (639 Nm) of torque. In terms of performance, the car accelerates from 0-60 mph in 3.8 seconds and the top speed is a breathtaking 194 mph (312 km/h).

For comparison, the standard TT-RS "only" has 340 hp and 332 lb-ft (450 Nm) of torque. It runs from 0-60 mph in 4.6 seconds, before topping out at an electronically limited 155 mph (250km/h).

Avus also equipped the car with an adjustable coilover suspension (€1299), a matt black vinyl wrap (€1999), and gloss black 20-inch Sportec Mono wheels outfitted with 255/30/20 Hankook S1 Evo tires.

^ I agree. Looks more aggressive and less cute contrast to previous models.

The RX-8 could take it in the twisties

Seriously though I would lose the wing and get different wheels, somehow the shiny black wheels diminish the effect of the flat black paint.

:D hey the sale rep wasn't there...besides he told us to go down this "open" road ....I do wish I was smart enough to erase some older vids from the SD card B4 doing the 110 run. Well I havn't driven an RX8, and I am looking into an 09 (if mazda can get them ) but I was suprised that it does pick up speed when you least expect it. I looked down once and I was doing 60 in a 40 zone ...it just didn't feel like it though. Oh and it was a Quattro version I think, basically a FWD, but when it comes into the turn or something like 'car losing traction' power is sent to the rear wheels, I tried it out it was ok, probley need more time in it. Nice car, but damn expensive, cheapest I can find near me is 31k...and thats the base model.

Thanks, just tell them your not buying one I told them that. Anyways where is glendale? I used to live in concord last year, then moved back to tx. Miss Nor cali , but not the gun laws, hippies, transgenders, etc.... If you can, see if you can drive a TT-S, its got a bigger turbo, puts out about 280hp I think, but only in their DSG transmission, but I wasn't let down when I drove it, shifting with the paddles reminded me of my xbox racing wheel
