2018 Audi TT RS consumer reviews

So far, there isn't anything I don't like about it. This was a surprise to me from my husband. Wanted a fun car. I have been driving an SUV.

My TT is an excellent driving car, very reliable, very smooth, and prompt response to acceleration or stopping. It’s fun to drive, but also feels safe. It looks great and I’ve had no problems at all.

this car has a ton of power for the money. audi sucks, but this specific car was serious enough for me to leave my previous.

Best investment I’ve ever made in the automotive world. This car is very light which makes it hard for other cars above it’s class to compete with it performance wise. The technology is great there is nothing else I could ask for in this car other than possibly a Heads up display but is not needed since the instrument cluster is all digital and for weight reduction. Very happy with this car.

It’s a fantastic car and everyone knows how quick it can be but few of us know about the negatives. First off anyone that is older or has an issue with their back will soon realize that it’s not the easiest car to get in or out of. The other issue is the accelerator is slow to respond, even in Sport Mode it’s not very quick to react. I expected the response and reaction of the accelerator would be 100% on point but it isn’t. The last thing I would mention is missing the center screen. I wish I had a big center touch screen to use versus the dash that at times isn’t very visible. That’s it. Yes everything you’ve heard is true and it’s completely glued to the roads. Enjoy!

This is by far the nicest and easiest to live with sports car that I have ever owned. Great seats, great stereo and tech (virtual cockpit is amazing!), wonderful interior design and quality and a really useful amount of space under the hatchback. And then the sound of the 2.5 5 cylinder which is completely unique and puts a smile on my face every time. Fantastic performance for the money with the only downsides being a front-wheel drive biased AWD system and no memory seats which is somewhat silly at this price point.

Let me start off by saying I?m not easily impressed. And the TTRS wasn?t my first choice. I?ve owned a number of cars in this segment including several Porsche Caymans, Mazda Miatas and Jaguar F-Types so I have a discerning eye for quality and fun in a sports car. My favorite style is the Jaguar F-Type. My favorite overall ride quality goes to the Cayman. The most fun was probably the Miata. In getting a new TTRS, I was hoping to get a little bit of everything jammed into one vehicle! And I was also looking for an entry and seat height to satisfy my wife (she hated stooping down to get in and out of the Miata). I think the Audi does a decent job on all marks. The interior is my favorite aspect of this car. The seat comfort is unrivaled (despite the suspension isn?t always the most forgiving, but I didn?t expect a super plush ride in a sports car!). The seat diamond quilting looks phenomenal and the side and shoulder bolsters, along with the adjustable leg cushion are perfectly comfortable for any length ride. The power, ahh the power, is incredible. It?s a very fast car and when the turbo spools up to boost it really pushes you back in your seat. It?s very true that you can shuttle from 0-60 in 3.4seconds in a $74k car using launch control. It?s also very easy to use. The mii infotainment system and virtual cockpit are another compelling reason to look at this car. The fact that 100% of driver functions can be accessed via wheel mounted controls is amazing and convenient. The cockpit screen is beautiful and has a vivid display. The nav is easy to use and I?ve gotten quite quick at inputting destinations through the mii touchpad, which is some cool tech in itself. The cargo space is ultimately what sold me on this car vs others. I haven?t seen any other sports car with this level of performance have the comfort, convenience features, tech AND tons of cargo space. The Cayman and F-Type have fair space and the Miata has none when compared to the gobs of room in the Audi. Especially when folding the seats down! So, my favorite things about this car in review are: 1) Interior comfort 2) Power, speed, acceleration 3) Virtual Cockpit, nav, mii, technology 4) cargo room 5) strobing directionals, oled lights, puddle lights 6) interior and exterior styling is decent Things I am not a huge fan of 1) although a good value for the money, it?s an expensive car at $74k. I could have bought an F-Type for less 2) I?m not a huge fan of the wheels that came with their signature black-optic package 3) would be nice to have two full size cup holders. There is one and then a second sort of clip inside the arm rest. 4) door bins are rather small 5) sound of the 5cyl sounds good at first but can be a bit droning at speed. I find myself switching to ?comfort mode? often to silence engine noise because it can become a bit of a bore. So as you can see the pluses are huge and the minuses are minimal and personal preference really. It?s a great car for the money, with a gorgeous ? interior plus tons of power. What?s not to love in a sports car?!

I have driven various versions of the Porsche Cayman/Boxster for the last ten years. I recently traded my 2017 Cayman S for a new Audi TT RS, and I am very pleased. In my opinion the RS is superior to the Porsche in every respect. The ergonomics and Virtual Cockpit are especially noteworthy. Above all however, is the performance given by the five cylinder turbo engine, which is smooth and quiet while providing remarkable acceleration. If this car had been available in 2016, I would never have bought my Cayman S.

A great 400HP GT. Great styling and high quality interior. Handles great, and becomes a real sports car in dynamic mode. Perfect paint and finish. RS details are great.

Fantastic car. Performance is on par with much more expensive options. Faster than the M6 which this car replaced.
