370tt?

dannyrst

I'm looking for a mix between an Audi TTS and a 370z.

Basically I want a 2 seater or 2+2 with a turbo engine (no convertibles). I've been racking my brain for a while and I don't think such a thing exists.

No budget, nothing older than 5 years.

Anyone solve this little puzzle?

Only you can decide, the 370z is supposed to be good, but I personally favour German cars. That said I had use of a TT for a month a didn't like the crampness and other minor features compared to a Golf.
But it's your money to spend as you please.

Yeah what I'm looking for is alternatives.

I'd buy a 370z if it had a 2.0 Turbo engine. But with a 3.7 N/A engine, the MPG is generally around 24/26 on normal roads.

I'd buy an Audi TTS but my missus doesn't like them.

I need a third option which combines the looks of the 370z with a turbo engine but it just doesn't seem to exist.

BMW Z4 and dont put the metal folding roof down?

One year older than you want, but a Z4 3.0Si Coupe was made up to 2009.

We had one and it averaged approx 29mpg which is better than a 370Z. Our 2.0i Turbo Z4 did 34mpg.

You will have an extremely low depreciation rate on the z4 coupe too.

You're right the 370Z will average approx 24 ish at best.

Fantastic cars though. We love ours.

Bear in mind that you'll buy a 370Z for considerably less than the equivalent Audi or BMW so you could offset fuel economy against that?

We bought a 2013 370Z GT for £19995 with 9K miles.

Mrs has a Z4M, she loves it and can get 28mpg driving like Miss Daisy, and averages around 18mpg.

How about a Cayman?

Toyota GT-86 / Subaru BRZ and fit a turbo?

The 3.0Si variant will do a lot more than that, but obviously its not an M car.

Peugeot RCZ?

I was interested in something similar but actually would like a convertible. As mentioned earlier you could get a Z4 and not put the roof down. I'm looking at an sdrive35i in the near future which is the 3 litre turbo. There are some early 2009 models for around £15k.
