    :eek: Audi are churning out nice cars lately. Getting better by the months. This thing is rumoured to have either a 3.2 v6 turbocharged or a 5 cylinder turbo charged putting around 360bhp. 0-60 times of low 4's?
    There are a few spy photos around the web. Expected to be out 09.

    I can only see the first image, but I feel I have to mention the RS5 which is rumoured to be not far away. Here are the obligatory Photoshop renders, and if it looks anything like this it'll be amazing.

    Rumours of a twin-turbo 4.2 litre V8. No fuel crisis over at Audi!!

    Peasant deleted my pictures I had up, for what reason I dont know?:confused:

    I'm liking the RS5 alright.

    Yea the RS5 looks the bad ass. Will that be the same 4.2 V8 that's in the current RS4?

    I didn't delete your pictures ...to the contrary, I tried to fix the links.

    When I first saw your post, all I could see were the small red X's. Then I opened the links in a separate window and re-posted in the link in your post.

    Then I could see all pictures (big as they were)

    Now, a short time later, all I can see is a big, empty frames where the pictures used to be.

    I have no idea what happened there

    Here are the urls of your pics again for people to click and see for themselves

    I'll have to change my user name if Audi build a 5 pot engine again.

    PLEASE Audi make a 5 pot TT. And while you're at it make some more 5 pot engines. In these more eco-conscious times it's time for the 5 cylinder engine to make a comeback.

    well audi sure are on a roll these days!!!!! 5 years ago i was a beemer man now i know where my loyalties lie. get ready for that user name change hehe

    BMW have started making BMWs look like BMWs again though with the new 7 series so I wouldn't be ditching BMW just yet. I must say Bangle nearly ruined BMW for me though. If it wasn't for the engineering achievements with their engines, especially EfficientDynamics I'd have lost any interest in BMW years ago though.

    Very nice futura :cool:

    If you have any questions about your new TT hop into the tt-talk.com forum, based in the UK but a few Irish lads with MKII TT's on there also, including a couple waiting for their TTS's also ;)

    2.5TFSI 320 BHP 5 cylinder according to my sources. Should be launched this time next year. When should we expect the name change??? :D

    Edit - Pics Futura? It is tomorrow after all!!

    Think closer to 350hp ;)
    Here is what it should sound like, it's based I think on half an RS6 engine



    there are a few test mules going around this one is pushing a bit more than 350hp and there is one with ceramic brakes :cool:
