audi actually makes pretty stiff suspensions ...

as you can see, this was testing, you can see sensors on the wheels

that is how they determine suspension compression, body roll, etc

don't worry, the new audi rs6 will have a very stiff suspension

also, the blue one is the rs6, the silver is only an s6

notice the body roll on the porsche around the same corner as the audi...

and the audi is a full size sedan, it's not bad actually, even in this test

so saying that audi is not worthy of lamborghini's motor doesn't make sense
wait what? i thought that VW owns Audi and Lambo. If you are right, (please show me a link) then im going to burn all my friends!

well, the automotive press certainly agree that VW does make fantastic interiors. blend of quality, style, and functionality mark the interiors found in VW, Audi, and now Lamborghini cars as well.

BMW has become way too dark and austere...Motor Trend once referred to the X5's interior about as happy as an accountant's office.

MBZ has become a somewhat of a gamble with a myriad of buttons and dials and all these bits...but Audi does their job right.


read any luxury sedan comparison, or compact sedan comparison, an Audi will be noted for its interior, 100% of the time.

agree, i am not extremely impressed with their interiors neither. it's not as busy as bmw, but then it doesn't look as clean as well

To me, it looks no more funny than the the SC430, both are daring design statements that may be a little controversial to some, but they 're both unique & look really cool at certain angles to me that's why I like them.

I would pick the A8 over the LS430 too if it's made by Lexus
