RS3 and TTRS have the 5-Cyl turbo. It's not the same as the Golf-R.

No interest in the Integra Type-S?
IIRC it comes with a few more options, not sure if worth the price jump tho.

0 Interest. It's almost 10k more for nothing.. Only thing I want from it is the ride control module. Which is $210

Right... but they are smaller inside, heavier, based on the same platform and carry a 30k premium. :dislike:
