Default Have you ever driven a S2000?

They didn't say best over all car. They said best Sports Car. I would agree that the S2000 is a better sports car while ours is a better over all all around car.

Default Why is this a surprise?

A stock TT is not in the same category really...

Actually it probably is a better "sports" car.

Default TT is not a real sports car (by classical definition)...

Proper sports cars are:

* Rear wheel drive
* 2 seater
* Manual transmission
* Roadster (by original design)

The TT fails on three criteria. So the Corvette &amp; 350z shouldn't be on R&amp;T's list either.

Regardless -- the TT is a very fun "Sports Car"

Default Duh. The TT isn't a sports car.

Not out of the box at least. :^D

Since I spend many of my weekends chasing a mostly stock S2000, I'd tend to agree.

Default The S2000's are nice I raced my friend's and

he beat me when I was stock and he had CAI and exhaust (Invidia). I raced him again 2 weeks ago with my chip (on pump) and exhaust and I beat him. But he wasn't that far behind I would say about 1 1/2 half car behind. He was impressed.
