No, because nobody would buy the 3.0 V6 then.

Default I think your logic is fuzzy.

Why do you think a 2.0T 200hp 4cyl will stop people form buying the 3.0 220hp 6cyl?

Here is my argument why both would sell:

With the Saab 9-5 you can pick from 3 engines.
2.3L 4cyl 185 hp
2.3L 4cyl 230 hp <-4cyl with more power than the 6
3.0L 6cyl 200 hp

According to your logic Saab shouldn't sell any 3.0L 6cyl's. Note: the Saab "base" engine is only 15 less then the 6cyl. If the Audi 2.0T had 200 and the 3.0 had 220 it would still offer 20 more hp and the non-turbo smoothness.

Are you saying Saab can do it but Audi can't?

Default The upcoming 245hp TT 2.0T is for transverse engines. The 225hp TT that it is based on,

is a very different car from the A4. Exhaust, intercoolers, intake, variable timing, turbo, etc.

Default Not sure if it will come for 2003, but Audi has to update the 1.8T to stay competitive. 170 hp is

not enough relative to what is in the market. 180 and 204hp Jettas, etc...

Default and just how many cars does Saab sell over here? ...

He said 200+ hp, which could be 210 or even 220.
