not a big fan of orange but the matching interior makes it look yummy :tup:

[BLACK 1.8T]

Hmmm. I'm kinda likin' the center exit exhaust.

[huitzi]

mk5's suck (imo)

[RavinJetta]

I like the look and the exhaust. Interior is really nice as well. Now let see if they bring it over

[Paul]

hehe they aren't too bad, they're faster than the MKIV, DSG, LSD, for a limited edition the seats / interior is better than the 337/20th ae.

[bugzy]

That looks like R32 MK5

has the same front end and rear valence with center exhaust

I think those were the speed editions. Definitly cool, painted in Lambo colors too.

[Brk4Euros]

I want those seats in my car..... =(

[Tom (aka Godzilla)]

I dig it. Can someone explain to me why flat bottom steering wheels don't meet U.S. safety standards?

When I spoke to the Audi engineers that worked on the RS4, their explanation was that the flat bottom steering wheel had not been submitted for testing here in the US, so wasn't legal at the time. He added that they were going to submit one for testing so that cars like the MKV R32, and future Audi's could include said steering wheel.

[SYNYSTAGLI]

MKV R32, and future Audi's could include said steering wheel.

Don't ya'll see the flat part??

Well apparently that one they were talking about is different :tup:

[NotFastMKV]

For reference, this will be called the magma GTI, or at least it was going to be called that when I got this info like 4-5 months ago, but was told to keep it quiet, but since the cat is out of the bag, if anyone else has q-s let me know

Dr. Evil. Not Austin Powers. Same movie though. Not close enough, however, to keep me from pointing it out.

Yup, orange stiching inside and no controls on the wheel....my bad :D

[euroREADY]

Mmm leather + suede seats?!

[NotFastMKV]

euro,

Do not get your hopes up on the suede making it stateside, if it does, be very thankful.

[mitssn]

It's not a Mustang... but it'll do.:D :D

[Skwurlz]

Speaking of Mustangs, there was a worked over 2006 on the side of the road here in town yesterday, looks like an oil line to the blower popped off and caught fire. Whole front of the car was on fire, and you could see something spilling out fueling it. The driver hopped out with an extinguiser and it didn't do anything against that oil fire.

Piece of crap Fords. I couldn't tell ya how many have shot the plugs right out of the heads because those crappy Triton motors only use the first 3 threads on the plugs to grab.

It sucked cause the guys money pit was totaled.

[euroREADY]

i hope that interior makes it over here. :/

[MrFast4Ward]

love everything about it except the chrome front
