I know the GTS is supposed to be lower and handle better than the turbo but what about the Turbo S. Wanted a GTS but made the mistake of driving a loaded TT-S yesterday. 130k sucks but it was money. What are the differences in the handling.

 

Yes GTS is lower, but that is an easy fix for a turbo by any lowering modules. Also easy to fit any 20 or 21" wheels afterwards.

Too bad you test drove a turbo S as even the 500hp on my turbo is overkill for an SUV.

 

I had the GTS and just got a TTS.

If you don't need the power, get the GTS. It truly drives like a car. I had the GTS lowered with the Techart module which made it that much better.

Haven't really pushed the TTS yet and I also put the lowering module. Right now seems very comparable in ride, except that the seats in the GTS are better in terms of support.

I am addicted by speed and if I wasn't I would say get the GTS over the TT 10 out of 10 times!

 

That's what makes the TT so magic, all the effortless power.

 

best advise is if u're set on the GTS don't drive anything above. not even Turbo. seems like it's too late though.

 

I love speed but for all around out of the box the GTS is the best.
Of course I'll have a lambo in the drive way at somepoint so that will take car of that extra 100hp+ hp I will miss in the TS.

 

So true! My wife just loved the GTS... then she drove the Turbo and it was all over.

 

I actually drove both the GTS and the TT before I purchased the GTS.
Between those two I opted for the GTS for personal likes/dislikes between the two. $$ wasn't a factor.
But now since this new pretty TTS has come out. I think the competition for the GTS is the TTS, not the TT.

I'm saving my pennies for the TTS. Be trading my GTS in when I have a few more saved. I am wanting the same payment.......

 

What are the like/dislikes you guys have between the GTS and TT? TTS seems to just be the best of both worlds.

 

We need a 550hp GTS. I'm thinking that would be perfect and would get rid of a lot of decision problems. I drive a lot of them all the time and the GTS is awesome, but ponies are ponies.

 

the TTS is the 550 GTS.
And there is software to help with the turbo lag, not eliminate, just help reduce....

TTS, best of both worlds, awesome handling SUV with space for 4/5, and a nice back area for luggage, and the handling of a sports car with the power of one.

 

The GTS is reasonably priced having it loaded compared to a loaded Turbo, the one I priced went to 99,000 with PCCB's and every option on the books. I just test drove my uncles GTS, its a sweet suv but if i didnt have my CS I would of gotten it.

 

I think its time for you to show us PICS...quick, before you get rid of it,LOL

 

So true. We were set on a Red GTS. Hard loaded. Drove a Turbo and it was game over.

i started with a CTT and traded for a GTS - i found the CTT too disconnected a driving experience. fast as ..... but that got boring for me.

they are both amazing machines and i say drive each as much as possible 1st.
