<< too bad audi's are not known for being very reliable >>


Maybe back in the early 80's, but not now.

A lot of images of vehicles I will NEVER afford.
When you folks get them, write your driving experiences here so I have some depth for my fantasy driving.
Thanks

Bah! Why not get one of the new Vettes and put a few more grand than what you paid for it and give that baby 650HP. You could squeeze that out easily with a little blow and squirt(Supercharger and NOS). :) :)

Please don't start:( We're talking about luxury sedans here, not modded Vettes.

Very sweet looking! However it does look a LITTLE like a stretched out Passat (not that there's anything wrong with that ;))
And vi_edit is right....get some new rims!

Looks sweet, but definitely a long way off for me, I'm just getting started in my career ;)

I think out of cars in my future, the Lincoln LS is my first choice.

Wow, that's a beauty.
In GTAudiophile's post, that first shot of the new 7xx BMW has a sign that says Ingolstadt on it, that's the city where Audis are made...interesting.
I'm still bitter Audi never released their Quattro Spider back in 1994. To have to settle for a glorified bug in TT form was quite a letdown, but looks like Audi can make up for it with this one. :)

Ingolstadt is right outside of Munich. The Autobahn pretty much runs right through Ingolstadt between Munich and Nuernberg. Guess the BMW guys could have driven south, but then they would have gone into Austria.

Good eyes. Most Audi models (all but the A8, correct me on this one if I missed one) are bassed on VW chassis. Like GTI=A3, Jetta=A4, Passat=A6.
