That’s how Honda compensates for turbo lag. Reverse V-TEC to give power down low while the turbo spools up so that in the high RPM’s the turbo is what provides all of the power.

Man, I wish I could afford a 944 Turbo so bad. It’d make for the perfect 2nd car for me and wold make up for the fact my first was a Corolla...

The supercharged V6 is soooo underpowered. The engine can easily put out 400+HP and 375+ lb•ft of torque, but Audi de-tuned it to make the RS5 more appealing. At least in the SQ5, it was given more power. If it doesn’t come in a manual I can live with it, since Audi’s DCT gearbox is the bee’s knees.

Well, I’ll agree the interior isn’t really “Audi” and it looks like a TT interior. Remember that the A3 is only a much nicer Golf and the S3 is only a much nicer Golf R. The A3’s only real purpose is to get people interested in Audi since it starts under $30k. So Audi won’t put much effort into it compared to their…

As an Audi fan, the S3 is a glimpse of hope for the future of Audi. Right now, Audi’s lineup is super aged and needs replacing. I’m worried about what direction the S4, S5, and RS5 shall take once they’re refreshed. However, the S3 has shown that Audi can make a really fun little car loaded with all types of bells and…

I feel like affluent people will buy it just to fuck with their friends.

I know, I’m a mechanical and I took Civil classes before. I know pretty much all modern structures designed by good Civil engineers can withstand massive forces, I’m just saying it still looks superrrr sketchy. Like walking on a see-through walkway.

I’m sure it’s well engineered to withstand the forces a runway would encounter.

Maybe, but Audi isn’t exactly too strict about “weight savings” considering they luv their AWD...which is why it confuses me this isn’t AWD...

This is cool and all, but uh...only RWD? Seems very un-Audi-ish to do that...

Because we gave the Nazis a good dose of D as they got fucked of the French coastline.

The Pope looks for assurance both in God’s love and with his warranty on cars.

Let me ask my inner adult: Crack Pipe. Why? Because this damn thing will need so much work and money poured into it that you could get a much better or faster E30 for the same price.

Or you could just buy a well optioned and much better Audi S5 instead.

Okay, I’ll give one that’s not a sports car that already has a V8 for it’s base.

This is Hyundai, the point isn’t to make sense, it’s to make cents. Consumers will be all sorts of awed by a bunch of mainstream superheros turning into those Lexus looking things.

They could just com out with a Mk II S2000, maybe call it the S2020?

Really? When I got my first car at 17 it was $5.5k and it is the most boring yet economical car of all time (guess). I’m 19 now and trying to upgrade to a CL Type-S or get a motorcycle because I’m bored of it. Damn it’s tough though. The only access I have to my parents money is still for things like food, shelter,…

I don’t see the point of lane splitting in traffic that’s moving over 25mph, but if someone does I guess that’s okay. I think it’s perfectly logical at stoplights and in bumper to bumper traffic, though.
