Porsche 718 Cayman S Vs Audi TT RS: Which Gets Your Vote?

The new Cayman S and TT RS - two arch rivals - were revealed within hours of each other. Which would you have, given the chance?
Porsche 718 Cayman S Vs Audi TT RS: Which Gets Your Vote?

The Porsche 718 Cayman S and Audi TT RS seem to be offering the same thing. Both are very fast coupes, and both will cost you around £50,000. Well, we think: the Porsche is £48,834, and the TT RS is expected to be around the same if not a smidge more.

However, what’s interesting is the two go about the whole fast thing in very different ways. The Audi is front-engined and four-wheel drive, while the Porsche is mid-engined and rear-wheel drive. The Audi is significantly more powerful and faster, putting out 395bhp to the Cayman’s 345, and hits 62mph from rest in just 3.7 seconds compared to 4.2 in the Porsche.

The Audi will also sound better thanks to having a turbocharged inline-five engine (the Cayman makes do with a turbo flat-four), and be more practical thanks to having a pair of - admittedly small - seats in the back.

Then again, the mid-engined Cayman will almost certainly be the more engaging of the two to drive, and can be bought with a manual, unlike the dual-clutch auto-only TT.

So, bearing all that in mind, which would you prefer? Get voting!

The TT RS is likely not such a good looking car but surely not a slow one. The Cayman 718 is also not a slow one but not as much as the TT RS and it’s a charming car, with the style of the rear end and having the name of “Porsche”.
I would vote for Porsche!

TT RS. Why? Because it looks mean as hell and probably sound wonderfull thanks to that 5 pot engine. Have you ever heard the new 4 pot of the Cayman? It sound like an STi, only much worse.

I’ve always had a special place in my heart for a Porsche Cayman
