I want that AUDI remain independent in the future which think their which effect on AUDI the assumption of Porsche at Volkswagens will have? positive or negative.

I want too audi to be independent.Porshe did work with audi on the rs2 and they did a hell of a job. The only thing that i don`t like now is that everything that is developed by audi must also be on VW or seat, skoda( ex : FSI engines). VW also has in the front a gril simillar to the one at audi , and what i`ve notice recently is that the front lights from Passat are in proportion of 70% the same as the R8. But there is no doubt that audi has pprogresed a lot since being owned by VW, but still i think they should be independent. They will definetly make it on their own. :rs6kiss:

Keep it as it. Audi can develop cars much cheaper than the competitors. BMW just lost huge amount of money with the development of the new X5 and 3 series coupe.

With so many mergers going on nowadays I don't think people care to much about the pedigree anymore. It's all about the car, the brand, and the performance when it come to German cars.

Audi has a strong foothold in the States. You can't go 2 blocks without seeing at least 1 audi drive by. I think their future is extremely strong.

In the past Porsche and VW developed cars together in the form of the SUV, I wonder will it be more a tie-up with Audi on this front as Audi are after all gunning for BMW for in the form of a 'driver's car' and this will work better for Porsche as present VW designs are more about maximising passenger space, something Porsche neither need or want from future models.
