There are going to be three versions released. A 5.2l V10 engined version (based upon the Gallardo engine), the 4.2l V8 from the RS4 (which is the only one on release at the moment) and a twin turbo version of that engine similar to th RS6

Um, he was right. The V10 engined one isn't going to be avaliable til 2008. The 4.2V8 is the only one that' s been driven or featured so far.

Engines are made by Audi not Lambo.

Slightly detuned V10 can be found in S8. The new V12 in LP640 is made specially for Lambo, and isn't used in any Audi if I recall correctly.

Audi macht Gaudi

i like the new tt 3.2 and the new r8. imo they are the only 2 sporty-looking cars.

steelsnake00 · Post by **steelsnake00** » 04 Jan 2007, 23:08

Only two sporty looking cars at all? Or just Audis

Fishwhiz · Post by **Fishwhiz** » 04 Jan 2007, 23:44

by audi, what do you think, this is an audi topic aint it?

PSZeTa · Post by **PSZeTa** » 05 Jan 2007, 00:02

You sounded like you were talking about cars in general, not just Audi.

Fishwhiz · Post by **Fishwhiz** » 05 Jan 2007, 00:31

well, i posted in an audi topic, and told the site that i only like the r8 and tt yet you guys seem to think it is a coincidence that my two favorite cars are audis, and that i am talking about my two fav cars in general. if i was being general i would say my favorite cars were the ford gt and the shelby gt500.

The only Audi I think is really cool is the RS6 and ofcourse the Urquattro

GioDeR · Post by **GioDeR** » 05 Jan 2007, 21:33

my fav audis is the RS4, in red, and of course...the urquattro

Actually there are quite number of nice Audis. Till mid '80 Audi wasn't respected as BMW for example, but in less than 10 years it became BMWs larges competitor beside Mercedes-Benz. Now, I'm not a hardcore fan of Audi, but it surely deserves a large respect in Auto-Moto world. RS series are Audis jewels, even ordinary S is impressive mashine. The new TT even beat 350Z in overall quality for one part of critics. The A6 can without much trouble compete with BMW5 series, although most of people will take the BMW. R8 will surely have its strenghts. But I can't agree with price if it stays as advertised.

i cant see why audi thinks they'll run out of money by entering the F1 circuit. with all the LeMans 24h wins and etc, i think they have the bankroll. they should probally enter rally again too.

Hmm i don't know....... how does a 4.2 V8 BI-turbo sound to you?

shadow665 · Post by **shadow665** » 28 Apr 2007, 04:17

si the r8 even on the road yet or just prototype

steelsnake00 · Post by **steelsnake00** » 30 Apr 2007, 13:45

Google is your friend. It's been in production for a while now.

shadow665 · Post by **shadow665** » 30 Apr 2007, 14:09

ok thanks

I think Audis are quite a formidable luxury car manufacturer, and their prices beat Mercedes-Benz by far. Eg. Audi A4 ($35K CAD) vs. Mercedes Benz C320 4MATIC ($42K CAD). Not to mention the Audi A4 looks IMO a lot better than the C class. But against BMW, I think that I would go for the Bavarians, because of their new styling cues which really puts the BMWs in front of the pack.

Gotta love the germans, producing some of the best cars around. I want to see that 4.2FSI thrown in a Golf or a A3. Ford Racing have a V8 in the focus so i guess it ain't impossible. Also VW released the Golf GTI W12 OMG only if it went into production!!!!

Porsche-AG · Post by **Porsche-AG** » 04 Jun 2007, 03:20

@ Glopaticki: Wow, I did a quick Google on that GTI W12, and even though it looks sort of like a riced/tuned GTI, it could trick a lot of SLR McLaren owners when it crosses the finish line first. Imagine how cheap that car would be compared to high-performance exotics. I'm guessing that it would be between $60K - $100K.

Glopaticki · Post by **Glopaticki** » 04 Jun 2007, 04:05

@ Porsche-AG Lol only if it went into production. Fingers crossed BTW i guess u know heaps about porsche just wondering whats goin on with them and volkswagen. Doesn't porsche own an majority of shares or sumfin along those lines?

Porsche-AG · Post by **Porsche-AG** » 04 Jun 2007, 04:12

Well I wouldn't say that I'm a Porsche know-it-all but I have my fair share of info about them.

Yes, it's true that Porsche does own around 31% of Volkswagen, and according to some sources, it's because they don't want another party interfering or even taking over Volkswagen as it's Porsche's most important partner.

Other than that, right now the only interaction between Porsche and Volkswagen is the shared platform for the Porsche Cayenne/Audi Q7/Volkswagen Touareg. But a new Cayenne is expected in a few years which will shift away from the Volkswagen design.

For all u Audi Fans, check out this RS6 getting thrashed, poor car but sweet engine note. Make sure u watch it till the end!!

Don't think those tyres are Continentals cause they are speed tested and stuff like that. Also he should have upgraded his brakes, maybe Audis ceramic brakes option?
