MSRP on a base 2014 Audi TT coupe with no other options is $40,795 including destination.
MSRP on a base 2014 Scion FR-S with no other options is $25,455 including destination.

That is alot more than $10K. It is over $15K. For about $7K you can get a turbo or supercharger, better cooling, better brake pads, etc on that FR-S and easily make 275-400+whp and 220-300+ ft lbs or torque depending on whether you have E-85 available.

And still have a big chunk of change left over. MSRP of a 2014 BRZ Limited is $28,390 with destination. So you could go that route as well and spend $7K on perormance and still be well under an Audi TT. The FT86 would annihilate it.

But it depends on what you want. The Audi is quite a bit heavier at just under 3200lbs or about 400lbs heavier than the FR-S.

Personally, I don't think these two really compete much based on price alone.
