Magnificent. I imagine it sts out the horizon whilst its pilot listens to Pink Floyd in supreme comfort.

I think it looks mega, although I think the car needs the black external trim rather than the silver. Having said that, I prefer the more restrained looks of the E63S.

Will be interesting to see how it deals with UK roads. Although, the thought of a 2.1 tonne RS Audi on 22 inch wheels (or even 21s) and super skinny tyres on the crappy roads around where I live makes me physically wince. May be wrong though.
have you ordered one ?

I can't help liking that. Absurdly agressive looking. As far as VED goes, I'd hazard a guess a fair few of these will be on contract hire, and if they're anything like mine, it's taken care of by the finance company. Besides, if you can afford sub 20mpg, you can afford the other associated costs.

Yeah I highly doubt many people with the wonga needed to roll around in six-figure motor cars will be very much perturbed by VED biggrin

Last week we had the Audi Sport flagship; this week he have Audi's revered flagship. How many flagships can there be in the Audi fleet??

The quicker it hurtles toward the horizon the better with that rear end, gopping.

I watched the smokin tire one last week but the cinematography is awesome in this review, really enjoyed it, will certainly watch some more of his stuff.

That is probably my dream car, stunning in that red, just a shame i'm not minted and live close enough to Birmingham for it to be sniffed out on my drive.. smile

You think Nick Mason listens to Pink Floyd while driving? smile Anyways the Audi drivers I used to meet didn’t strike me as Pink Floyd fans. More like gangsta rap or something... biggrin
