Incoming rumor...

The production line for the Audi LeMans quattro is under completion in Neckarsulm (quattro GmbH).

My guess is that once the RS6 production is phased out they'll start with the LeMans.

So it will be here much earlier than we expect! :cheers:

Awesome news!

Response to the prototype must have been better than expected. Last I heard (Dec 2003 Car magazine) was normally aspirated 450 hp 1st followed by 600 hp V10 biturbo.

I can't see them going above 500 hp to ruin the market for the Gallardo.

The Gallardo's falling behind the next generation of Porsche turbo anyways, so the competition is going to ruin the market for the Gallardo. Audi will have to raise the hp for the Gallardo anyway!
