You brought up your 94 Si in an earlier post. That's where it came from.

And you talk about price difference. If I had bought the 180, I wouldn't have bought it for just speed. I could have bought a used Viper with 30K miles for the same price as our 225, but it would have been a hell of a lot faster. What is extra special funny to me, is that a brand new honda accord (yes we did look) with all the extra goodies that the TT already has such as leather, premo stereo, etc will cost only $2000 less than our TT cost.

The Accord is over priced. So I agree with you there.

And just for your information the 180 quattro does the 1/4 .2 faster than the FWD, so if you do the math that would be 15.6-.2=15.4. I believe that is faster than 16.2... but just in case let's do the math. 16.2-15.4= .8 faster. Well, I will be damned.
As for the 99-00 civic, the 2000 April issue of Sport Compact Car reported the Si 0-60 at 7.9 and the 1/4 at 15.9.. ouch. Here is another site that confirms those same times, except the 0-60 is 7.95:

Thank you, come again.

I never said it would beat a TT. But it is possible. The times are not that far apart. I just stated that it wouldn't get walked on. The specs I quoted were for the 00 TT Coupe, not the roadster.
