Audi has release some details/pics about the brand new RS8. The front looks like the Bugatti Veyron (in a way), unfortunately the pics are in a mag so i can't upload them. The engine is a W12, 6.0 Biturbo, 600hp, the max. torque is available from 2.300RPM to 5.300RPM, and is 4WD. . .

Wow, yeah. The guys at BMW are gonna have to scramble to beat that offering!!! :lol: Oh man, I'd be happy with just a newer Audi S8 with a high output V-8. All wheel drive is a very sexy thing... :mrgreen:

Nice but I hope the RS8 is a little more agressive.

it is a nice car, but those rims are too VW, and it could use an aggressive look like the RS-6....and hopefully it comes in a 6 speed.

dude cars like that are not raced but driven so why the need for auto, it would be unprofitable and the semiauto shifting is good enough to suit a driver who buys a car like that.

yea you bring up a good point, but still a 6 speed would be nice.

who would buy it? nobody the RS6 is better anyways and the A8 is HEAVY! so how would you even win a race thats including the 6 speed manual
