still sad that audi has a super car that gets burned by a station wagon imo. Although the R8 is beautiful looking car just cant get over the fact the car is over a 100k and they put a 4.2 in it.

Not a surprising result though, the AMG is probably eligible to be used as a space shuttle. The 6.2 might not have as much potential as the 55k (except Weistec) but compared to other cars they haul *** I don't like the wagon styling in the W211 though, the back is weird and not very sharp. The E60 M5 Touring is the better looking car when it comes to wagon but in sedan form the E63 is just GORGEOUS

This will fix it though, I know the V10 has more potential from a TT but that V8 TT sounds I also think they could get 600+whp from them if they build up the internals and turn up the boost. I know there are blowers for the R8 but honestly that engine does not sound nice with a really high pitch supercharger whine. I think the spool of the TTs sounds better. By the way I don't mean better than any blown car, just that car. I love the SC sound on the 55ks and the SLR.

Ive seen this vid before and that v8 tt sounds amazing and im sure flys. My point was why sell a high end car like that and its still not high end cause you have the 5.2 V10 above that kinda like the acura NSX beauiftul car but then you have the crap 3.2 liter motor makin 300 hp give or take. if your gonna do it in my opinion charge a little more and make it a monster.
