Quicker even than the Panamanabananamera™ Turbo S!

The RS7's performance (with yet another 100+HP) promises to be even more impressive....

My 2013 S6 is APR tuned. It's wonderful to spin all 4 tires using launch control.

Sexy! My favorite line is that they didn't want to compromise reliability. Lets you know there is more to give! Can't wait for to see an S8 tune! I believe an S8 tune would be my alternative to the RS7.

As suspected APR measures the Crank HP as 480 compared to Audi's claimed 420. That combined with minimal driveline losses would eplain the phenomenal performance numbers of all these latest S cars. I wonder what the S8's Hp really is...........................

I believe Audi Claims 520hp at the Crank. So that's still way less than actually measured. After reading some of the past comments from the Link below, I just now realize how many Audi haters there are out there. And it's only going to get worse, since this is just the begining of Total Audi domination...............
