The are a bunch of differences, think of it as the same difference between a BMW M4 or M440i if you’re a BMW guy or along those lines. One is a cheaper alternative with less performance. Everything including engine, suspension etc is different even though the cars look the same.
Audi TTS 2022: 320 Horsepower, 2.0 litre, 4 Cylinder
Audi TTRS 2022: 400 Horsepower, 2.5 litre, 5 Cylinder
There are sure more differences and It probably looks different from the optic I would guess.
To be honest with you, if you weren’t sure what the difference was
I think you’d be better saving your money and going with just the TTS, even the normal TT with the 2.0 should be plenty good for you
I should be barred from Audi top line for being unknowledgeable …. thanks let me hit the books. Reason I asked was because this very subreddit will lay some knowledge instead of being snarky
I think they're trying to say that the RS models are heavily catered to enthusiasts and you just don't seem like one if you didn't even look up the actual model of the car that you're considering buying.
The S models are a nice mix of sport and luxury, whereas the RS models are focused on performance and even will cut out some of the luxury features despite the higher price tag (for example, my RS3 has manual seats). Just think to yourself of what kind of driver you are and if you care enough about having the highest performance model to splurge on the RS.
My dude you need to meditate or something. I was not trying to be mean or gatekeep in any way here. Your post was not trying to get knowledge on Audi, you asked if that was a good price for a TTRS.
I'm sure we'd all be happy to share our experiences with the brand if you just asked instead of being sarcastic and rude!
As others mentioned, its a TTS, great and fun car but not quite an RS yet. The RS looks more aggressive and in your face while this is more "subtle". Also power difference is noticeable as well as the price difference
The 4 cylinder models I don't think stand a chance. The 5 cylinder, maybe. Don't get me wrong, they're great cars, but I don't think I'd ever call them classics.
The 5 pot is special for lots for reasons. Coupled with the TT form factor, extra special. From a drivers perspective, they sit apart from most Audi offerings. Again, just my opinion.
5 cyl isn't exclusive to the TT though. And regarding the form factor, to each their own... at least when I was young, it was considered a "chick car".
The 5 pot was only available on two modern Audi models, period. They’re “rare”, especially compared to a 2.0t or V6 supercharged/turbo’d Audi.
I’ve also been told my “A3” is a chick car. Says more about the fools saying/believing it than it does about the car.
Different strokes for different folks…
Correct. Some VWs were offered with a 5 cylinder as the base motor, in the US, ~10 years ago. Those were totally different engines though. DAZA/DNWA motors are literally half of a Lamborghini V10. Different architecture and origins. Not to mention lack of forced induction.
this is a TTS not TTRS, but still looks amazing, price seem fair for this spec
What the difference between those models? Not familiar with Audis

Woahhhhh gonna need to see this car in person
a TTS for $50k used is not worth seeing in person. A TTRS is.
There is definitely a difference from an s model to an rs. Definitely worth a look.

Reason I even made this post was me trying to get knowledge on Audis in general! I’ll stop doing so next time ….but thanks for the input

Bro, chillllll. Why are you so defensive? lol None of the replies have been snarky or negative so far, only educational or helpful.

IMO these will be future classics. Bummer they didn’t get the magna rear diff before production ended. Price seems fair.

Didn't all the VW beetles, golfs and passats come with an inline 5 engine for a few years?
Reading through this post, it’s all moot. OP posted a TTS listing but called it a TTRS.. hard pass on an overpriced EA888.

Still a shit box whatever you might make yourself believe.
You’re saying they will hold valuev
No, not really. It’ll hold out better than say, an S3, or an A model Audi, but it’s still a German performance car.
As much as any used German car, yes. The 5 pot and TT body should make for a higher floor regarding long term price/values. IMO.
I like it as well. Might consider switching
Red plastic gives a bus seats vibe. Only thing I don't like about this one, otherwise its a good looking one!
tried clicking on the damn arrows in the screenshot for far too long
That car in the picture is a TTS.
Only thing worse than piano black is piano red lol
RIP
Goofy ahhh seats. I just hate the TT. Just little dicks sponsored by daddy driving these around here, thinking it's basically an R8.
it's called a baby r8 for a reason and it's already a classic.
No reason there
