Haven't posted for a while - just been enjoying my S4 :s4Addict:
However the new S6 looks interesting...
http://www.audi.co.uk/about-audi/latest-news/quartet-of-new-v8-audi-s-models-destined-for-frankfurt.html
So the S6 and S7 get the 7 speed S-Tronic - perhaps not so good for aftermarket tuners as I thing the torque/power is pretty much at the limit for that gearbox. Also the weight is higher than I expected but what a tech-fest in the cylinder shutdown engine! I know Mercedes do this in their V8 but can't do it with the turbo V8 yet - one up for Audi!
