What an amazing engine.

Of course, this vehicle price point will be out of reach for 99% of the population.

Pretty sweet, but my favorite is still the Cayenne Turbo S.
Tirminyl

6.0. I guess you didn't click the link. It's in the first sentance actually!
Mr b00st
i'd take this over a cayenne turbo S any day, becuase it's slightly less horrible looking.
carfanatix
does anyone see a resemblence to the RDX from the side? o.o
Mr b00st
yeah.

but there are really only so many ways to style an SUV.

The RDX came after...both new Acura SUVs bear more than a passing resemblance to Audi products from certain angles.

I'm guessing it will never see this side of the Atlantic.
Edit: If it does it will be extremely spendy.

Makes no sense to produce an SUV that good and then not import it to the #1 market for SUVs...eh, no skin off my back though since I don't like SUVs anyway. Still, this is a really good one...
goota
id totally take this over a cayenne turbo
Keitero-sama
Still looks like ass.
Mr b00st
yeah, true, but it's got 493bhp and almost 20mpg.


I'm just waiting for them to fit this engine into the GTi.


special edition, i see it now: GTi R60 TDi V12 BiTurbo LeMans XLT

Take the Cayenne over this anyday, although I'm sure that doesn't suprise many knowing I hate Audi.

The Q7 was already my favorite SUV, so this is just amazing. I hope they change those wheels though.

Which is kind of dumb because the Cayenne is basically a rebadged Toureg that VW makes who happens to own Audi and I wouldnt be surprised if this used the Touareg/Cayenne chassis.
Asher
Yeah the wheels are kinda nasty, but the engine's a killer.
Synesthesia
I happen to like how the Cayenne, which is faster than this, looks.
Flaw
Aside from the rear, this thing is hot, and I'd take it over the Cayenne in a heartbeat......TORQUE.
