As cool as the TT RS might be, I'm not plunking down RS level dough for a car.

And then there's the scarcity of the RS as well. It may be harder to find than an M2 by a significant factor.

I got lucky, and it took me less than a day to find an M2 at MSRP. I doubt that will happen with the RS. . . ever.

Never thought I'd say this, but the M2 might be a bargain, especially if it holds its value anywhere close to how the 1M held its value.
All true, but this is really comparing to the wrong car... The RS3 is the price point competitor and with the same motor. I have my flights bought for Munich already for next year assuming I get an M2 allocation, and if not, Inglostat is just down the road
