Audi USA have started a petition on their Facebook page to bring the TT RS to the US. The TT RS has been available in Europe for the past year and has gotten some great reviews and many Audi fans in the US have been begging for the car to hit our shores. Well, if enough interest is generated, they just might get their wish.

So What Makes The TT RS So Special?

Unlike the tuned 2.0L turbo in the TTS, the TT RS gets Audi’s first 2.5L turbo engine. The 2.5 is based on the current naturally aspirated engine found in the US model VW Golf and Jettas. With the turbocharger and intercoolers fitted, the TT RS engine produces 340hp at 5,400 RPM and 332 ft-lbs of torque at 1,600 RPM. Combine that with a 3,200 pound curb weight and Quattro AWD, and the TT RS launches for 0-60 in 4.5 seconds and has a governor limited top speed of 174 mph. At a price of about $60k, these are Porsche Carrera numbers at a fraction of the cost!
