Thumbs up Audi Nuvolari

Hello fellas, im here to introduce the Audi Nuvolari. I always loved the Audi's, then the RS6 impress me! but the RS6 is not much against this new Mighty Audi... ok the perfprmance is..

The 5-litre V10 Biturbo, with direct petrol injection. It develops 441 kW (600 bhp). It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62.5 mph) in just 4.1 seconds and its top speed (electronically governed) is 250 km/h (156 mph).
ok.. now the photos...

Holy ****. The front fascia is a close resmblence of an Alfa Romeo. It says it'll debut in the Detroit Motor Show, if I'm not mistaken.
Not bad. Audi is getting more and more competitive on every model they shell out.

Watch Lan Evo's reaction when he sees this....
Hey Lan forget the TT.

The front grille is not my taste...overall, the car looks fine.

However, the specs and performance number are very impressive indeed

The interior's not my taste - looks to me like there's no place for a stickshift. When will Audi put a stick in one of their top performers? It's not like I can afford one now, but when I'm older, hopefully I will. And I will not have forgotten what it feels like to drive, so I'll want a stick.

Seems like more and more top auto makers are putting their version of semi-automatic tranny into their top performance car. For example, the Enzo Ferrari, the BMW M3 SMGII, the 600 hp Mercedes' concept, Porsches 911 Turbo and now the Audi concept vehicle.

I have not driven any one of this (duh') and can comment on how will they fair with the MT counterpart (if there is one in the line-up)...However, most reviews in magazine claim these systems are very sensitive and quick in response, just like MT...

I don't know, my impression is performance cars always come in MT, I guess not anymore

See, those tip-tronic type of trannies are fine, but they still don't have a clutch. That's what makes a stick a stick. But oh well... I imagine the market is largely driven by lazy old Americans...
