Is this possibly the fastest 4 cylinder car ever? It's impressive performance at the very least. I have to wonder if they're not offering a manual tranny because the automatic is the only way to manage all the horsepower. It will be interesting to see if the rest of the drivetrain can cope with the output of the engine.
The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution has the same 50/50 torque transfer ratio to the front and rear diff as the audi tts. The same stock 0-60 time "4.9 sec", and also a 4 cylinder turbo charged engine. It ONLY comes in stick in the U.S. market though. I would say the audi tts would definitely be fun to drive.

The new TTS comes with standard adaptive shock absorber technology as well as high performance braking system, giving you the best of both worlds.
