I've driven my RS4 recently and had a lesser car stuck in my mirror, because I was not going to go ridiculous speeds, risk an accident, just to prove a point.

I bet there's a Polo Gti forum user spouting the same story as the OP is on here :-)

The only annoyance on my face was knowing that his brakes weren't as big as mine and hope he doesn't squish my boot.

The OP is looking through rose coloured specs, and fair enough he loves his car. But you would need to spend some serious wedge to get a 996tt upto similar performance as a R8v10 without dangerously compromising its lifespan.

997.2 tts is where the turbos outperform the R8v10 plus

As a fellow 996TT owner I spot a broken spoiler motor... been there but thankfully fixed without a replacement.

Wheels aren't for me but otherwise I agree, lovely looking.
