I disqualify myself from voting on the grounds that I have no experience 
whatsoever with an AUDI TT, in fact I wouldn't recognize one if I saw it!
Secondly; there is no definition on 'outhandle'. A slalom course? A road race 
track? A go cart track? Panic stops? Acceleration? Deceleration? Skid pad?
Maybe a handling test similar to what Car & Driver, Popular Science and 
others run?

(I read an article in a DeLorean World magazine by a guy that took his D to a 
race drivers school and got whipped soundly the first day, but on day 3 he 
had both Corvettes and Ferraris behind him!)

This argument can not be settled with words!
Gentlemen, I think it is time for a duel! (D vs. Audi, not Don vs. James!)
