Which coupe is best - Peugeot RCZ, AUdi TT and Toyota GT8

I have about £14,000 to spend on a stylish coupe. I like the Peugeot RCZ, Audi TT and Toyota GT86. Practicality is not an issue. Which would you recommend and why?

It probably has to be the new TT with the EA888 2.0TFSI engine. The RCZ is gorgeous and handles well but relies on a 1.6 engine shared with MINIs that has had tome timing chain issues.

The GT86 is a rear wheel drive driver's car and you can switch off the ESC and Traction Control to have fun drifting it, but it lacks torque for everyday driving, forcing you to change down for motorway inclines that other cars would romp up in 6th.
