    That is the same car presented in Geneva in March. Just before the salon of geneva they hosted a VW event (AUDI LAMBO VW BENTLEY) and this car drove in and out of the stage... it just sounded veeeery nice!

    Although the purchase price would likely be incredibly high, this would be my choice of all the R8 engines.

    No diesel can compete with that!

    can someone explain me what exactly means Newtonmeter ? How do i feel the difference of 188 nm or 600 ?

    How do i feel the difference between a 3.0 TDI new A4 with 500 nm and the new S4 with under 500 nm ??

    Newton meter - torque. The power to do the work.

    One Newton of force about a point at a distance of one meter away from the point.

    It's the feeling of the car trying to push the seats into your back as you accelerate.

    180 nm = 4 cylinder while 600 nm = something very large in displacement.
    An R8 and an RS6 in one garage: It doesn't get much better!
