Default Absolutely...

They had the S8 and S6 at Sebring this past weekend. Both cars were completely open and I must say the S8 is "money!". You won't be disappointed.

Default Does the 4.2L V8 in the 2007 A6 also get FSI V8 with 350 hp?

I would think yes. However, I don't want to make any assumptions. Since the 4.2L V8 with PFI produces 310 lbs/ft of torque in the A6 and 317 lbs/ft of torque in the A8/A8L, I would think that the 4.2L V8 with FSI will produce 317 lbs/ft of torque in the A6 since it produces 325 lbs/ft of torque in the Q7 and, eventually, in the A8/A8L.

Default Bang and Olufsen stereo system

Is there any possibility whatsoever that this awesome stereo system will eventually trickle down to other Audi models as well as trickle up to the Lamborghini Gallardo based R8 sports car? I sure hope so as Bose might be becoming a bit of a dinosaur.

Default Excellent

Since the 4.2L V8 with PFI produces 310 lbs/ft of torque in the A6 and 317 lbs/ft of torque in the A8/A8L with the 4.2L V8 with FSI producing 325 lbs/ft of torque in the Q7 and A8/A8L, will the 4.2L V8 with FSI produce 317 or 325 lbs/ft of torque in the A6? I would think 317 lbs/ft of torque from the 4.2L V8 with FSI in the A6 based on what the 4.2L with PFI produces in the A6 and in the A8/A8L. However, I do not want to make any assumptions.
