If this is the same Audi that's supposed to be sharing a platform with the supposedly forthcoming Miura (both using a Gallardo chassis...confused yet?), then I remember reading a blurb in R&T about how one idea was to keep electronic aids and general electronic bloat to a minimum. We'll see.
Re: Audi, all I've been able to think of since the introduction of the new RS4 is why the company that can build the R8 and R10 won't--up until now--pursue a real sports car, which I don't think the RS4 is. It's big, heavy, has four doors, and a high CG. But as far as I can tell, the engine is brilliant. 4.2 liter V8 that revs to 8,600 rpm and produces I think upwards of 420 hp. Stick it in a well designed, light-weight chassis and you're off!
