Latest V8 TT News for ya.....CLS up first?
With New York auto show mode in full swing, read some interesting info.
V8TT with direct injection looks on track to be unveiled next year.....but get this, rumor has it the CLS will be first up to have it while we get stuck with the N/A motors (I am sure it will come shortly after....uhhhh I think)
That make any sense?? I forgot what they did when they went N/A. Did the E get it....then down the road the CLS got it.
Maybe it is true then.

EXCELLENT, that means the E will get it...... it's just a matter of time 
I think the CLS will be due for a new chasis design in 2011, and that's why they maybe getting it first

The only bad thing is that it looks like the CLS will get it for model year 2011 (that's 2 years from now 
), which means the E-Class won't get it until the face lift in model year 2012-2013 (and that's 3 to 4 years from now 
).
It seems like they could sell a LOT more W212 had they introduced it in the new W212 E63??

Would you get an RS6?
Nice. My girlfriends the same way, but thats because sometimes she drives her Infiniti FX35 faster than I drive my car.
