Need to at least have a practical daily... TT doesn't have enough seats and makes the 997 somewhat redundant. At least with the RS3 I could put a roof box on it and still go ski with 2-3 other people.

Seems to happen to a lot of 2-seaters.

TT
Z3/4
SLK
etc...

I know a lot of folks here have been down on the RS5 (NA engine, lack of significant power gains over the S4, etc.). But I'm a sucker for V8s, what can I say?
Yup I'm really really really tempted. I want a new RS even if its the TT-RS. I'd rather be king of the Audi hill ya know...

If you are going to be king of the Audi hill, wouldn't you just get a V10 R8?
You could allways turbo it for more fun

no wonder it comes with the "slush box". Funny to have another v8. The FI 6s offer so much more potential and efficiency. And you know the mileage is going to blow.
