[s-cars] The UrQ is back...in the form of a TT RS?

[Joe Pizzimenti]

Because you can make 800 horsepower without touching the valve covers,
that's why.  It would make a great weekend "just because, that's why" tire
burner.  Great motor.

If I wanted something that handled well, I'd drive the Evo.  That's my
compromise car.  Looking for a fun weekend thing right now.  At 35k, it
sounds like it'll do.

Taka, a viper does NOT sound anything remotely like an AAN.  Are you posting
from Bellevue?
