Very impressive and a bit of a surprise. Audi now has a much fuller complement of vehicle offerings than its competitors, many with clear dynamic as well as technological advantages. In my area Audi's are now the prevalent brand, based on my unscientific observation. IT does not hurt that Audi decided to bump the power on the higher end models in particular. Will be interesting to see how the auto press reviews the diesel lineup.

Was hoping for a little more hp, but the mpg is impressive and that's a LOT of torque.

Looking more and more like an A8L TDI is in my future....
