2011 Audi RS5

Hello, 2011 RS5.  450 HP produced by a wicked 4.2 liter V8 engine. 317 lb-ft of torque. Seven speed S Tronic transmission. Quattro AWD. Two doors. Put all that together, and you end up with the awesome 2011 Audi RS5. At least if you’re in Europe, that is – no idea if or when this [...]

2011 Audi A8

The Audi A8 has always been huge, and the new version just unveiled is still that – huge. Huge grille too, as has become the custom with all the modern Audis. While that massive grille may seem out of place on smaller Audi’s, it seems right at home on the 2011 A8. On either side [...]

Audi R8 V10 5.2 liter FSI Quattro

Say that three times fast.  Can’t?  Don’t worry, neither can I.  But I’d wager to say who cares?  The 2010 Audio R8 V10 FSI is one of the most bad-ass vehicles to come out of Germany – and that says a whole lot right there.  The vanilla Audi R8 is one of my favorite [...]

2009 Audi S4 gets a V6

The previously V8 powered Audi S4 is instead getting a TFSI ( Turbocharged & FSI direct injected ) 3.0 liter V6.  Power sinks just a bit from 339 HP to the new 333 HP.  I don’t know a single person who can feel a six horsepower difference.  With the smaller engine, the new S4 [...]

2009 Audi S4 gets Supercharged V6

The current S4 sports a gas-guzzling V8, of course.  Nothing less was good enough when it was released.  Times are changing though, and Audi is making (small) strides to develop more fuel efficient models.  With that in mind, the next generation Audi S4, due late this year, will dump the V8.  In it’s place will [...]

2009 Audi A3 Spy Shot

Car and Driver managed to catch the refreshed Audi A3 on camera recently.  Refreshed might even be too harsh of a word, since there really isn’t much going on here.  New headlights, and slight changes out front and out back are pretty much it for the exterior.  We might see the new 2009 A3 [...]
