Tuners have their fun with the Audi R8, why wouldn't Audi do the same? Keeping with this line of thought, the Ingolstadt manufacturer came up with the Audi R8 GT. It's a "better in every way" job of a limited edition model, but it had been missing something, it didn't have access to the sky. The R8 GT's Spyder sister...
I don't really know why, but Audi's R8 is tuning darling, and the V10 version is clearly in the top ranks. It's probably because of the same class feel as the Porsche 911, another tuner magnet, but either way, this here Ingolstadt made V10 really shines. Claiming some people just don't know how and why to have fun with "only"...
The Germans from Audi released details on a new e-tron concept, a prototype based on the current A3 variant, actually taking over almost all its aesthetic components. However, the situation dramatically changes under the bonnet, where the "e-tron" appellative is doing its job.

Under the bonnet, the Germans from Audi could opt...
Possibly one of the most niched cars you may ever get to see come out of Ingolstadt, the 2012 Audi A7 has just flashed its pricetag around. Further more, the Germans even launched an online configurator for their "sportback" Audi A8 where you can pretty much do anything to this car that a dealer may entice you to. At this...

Nearly everywhere you go in the automotive business you'll get to see downsizing of engines, mostly for economical and ecological concerns. This reaches out even to the business sector and worse still (in their imagination) to the Americans, as Audi will now demonstrate. When the 2012 Audi A6 goes on sale in the U.S. it will also be offered with...
The Germans from Audi decided to reveal a new commercial for their new supercar in range.

These performance alongside the perfect aesthetics completed by the Sepang Blue exterior...
Ever since the rumors were confirmed and up to its first testing session at Sebring's race track the 2011 Audi R18 was a spark of interest to me. Time has passed since then and we therefore got an update on the 2011 Audi R18 endurance racer especially on its looks. Since we've last seen it, the Ingolstadt racer hasn't actually...

Germany must be a country that's full of annoying people who hate the boring ones that make their cars. That's the only way I can explain why a decent car like the Audi R8 gets all of these weird and obvious tuning kits. The latest one came from Anderson Germany and its so bad it makes you forget all about...

Being logical, Audi are rolling up their sleeves and they decided that the first thing they're going to do is bring the A3 sedan to the American market. It's not...
Let's step away from the 2011 Geneva Motor Show for a while, let's take a look at something more sedate, more common. Even though it is an open top sports car, the Audi TT-RS is about as calm as the water in a glass. The Ingolstadt produced roadster normally develops a fairly decent 340 horsepower and 450 Nm of torque....
Abt Sportline is a pretty capable and successful tuner that specializes in Audi products that has dropped out of public view recently. In hoping to get back in the game they came to the 2011 Geneva Motor Show with a tuned version of the Ingolstadt's flagship Audi R8 V10 Spyder.
