GT4 BMW M3, the latest addition to the customer Racing product line through the distribution of BMW Motorsport offered to make his debut on the legendary Nordschleife before many fans at BMW ADAC Westfalenfahrt 56th weekend. After four hours, and Muller Fetid won in the category SP10 and 30 completed.

2009 Audi A6 3.0T Quattro

With a compressor Eaton four-lobe of improving the intake pressure to a maximum of 11.6 psi situation, married to a 3.0-liter V-6 makes A6 3.0T Quattro 300 hp and 310 lb-ft pair. It is basically the same engine that the future 333-hp 2010 Audi S4 with power supply.

Mash the gas from a stop, and the 3.0T has a linear force propels the 4114-lb sedan to 60 mph in 5.5 seconds, 1.5 seconds earlier than the old 255-hp, 3.1-liter -A6 Quattro hit that mark. Certainly, the xDrive BMW 535i and Mercedes E550 4MATIC are faster, but requires the BMW twin-turbo, and the Benz has eight cylinders. More importantly, he can not have the 3.0T 's is equal to 18 mpg city and 26 on the highway. One big surprise is that this new Audi is the future in the current V-8-powered A6 4.2 quattro, despite the larger engine 50 hp advantage.

2010 Audi A5 Sportback

The front seats will not find anything. Virtually indistinguishable from the A5 coupe to the Audi booth hard-earned reputation for quality craftsmanship of the interior is no harm at all. The feeling of quality is clearly visible in the cargo compartment of the A5 Sportback, where materials and their adaptation are impressive. The capacity of 17 cubic meters is the same as an A4 sedan, but the volume of the tailgate is easier to use thanks to the limousine to the top. The two-room apartment in the rear seat backs, flat load space is at nearly 35 cubic meters will be extended. Inside, despite the slinky silhouette, there is a decent home. Audi Sportback makes the rear-seat legroom and headroom is slightly lower than the A4 sedan. There are certainly enough room for six adults meters high, because, as I found. But the back seat is far from perfect. Although only designed for two passengers (there is no seat belt) in the middle, to ensure the seats and center armrest mass, they sit well outboard of the axis of the vehicle. Therefore, the view is, especially from the front to the front seat headrest. Head movement is also due to the proximity of the rail can not be limited. It was easy to find every seat an inch or two on the inside, by fixing the two problems at once, and it is difficult to understand why not to do Audi interior.

2009 Audi TT 2.0T Quattro Coupe

For 2009, Audi has granted our wish and now offers a TT Quattro four-cylinder to $ 38,125, $ 2100 or more than the first version of the reader. With the exception of the TTS-265-hp, four-wheel drive TT 2.0T is the fastest way that we have tested so far. Acceleration up to 60 mph 5.7 seconds and the quarter mile in 14.4 seconds mph was recorded on 96th We were somewhat surprised by the speed of TT Quattro is like 250 pounds more than the front-driver and has the same power and transmission. We believe that the weight gain by the introduction of the S-Tronic control, engine speed lifts and tilts the automatic clutch and balanced. In the first pilot, is the result of a tough start for a moment before the wheels from spinning tires hook up and all-wheel-drive, the TT simply bolts on without drama. Other than the introduction of more order and the lack of wheelspin before the TT 2.0T Quattro is almost identical to the pre-driver. Even with the extra weight and friction of the Quattro system is the artful game of the TT car intact reflexes, as well as the brakes are incredibly powerful and tenacious grip Skidpad. We have a respectable 23 mpg fuel economy.

2009 Audi R8 GT3

The Audi R8 conforms to the production-based GT3 regulations allowing the car to be fielded in numerous national and international race series.

Because the GT3 regulations prohibit the use of four-wheel drive the Audi R8 comes with the typical GT rear-wheel drive. The power is transmitted via a newly developed six-speed sequential sports gearbox. The suspension uses almost exclusively components from the production line. A comprehensive list of safety equipment guarantees the highest-level of passive safety. A modified front end and a large rear-wing generate the required downforce for the race track.

2009 ABT AS3 Audi A3

ABT AS3 Audi A3 also comes with the 1.4 TSI, brings a brisk 160HP (118kW) to the road instead of the series-standard 125HP (92kW). With the next largest unit, the 1.8 TSI 160HP (118kW) achieves an everyday 210HP (154kW). And the largest petrol engine, the 2.0 TSI, provides 240HP (177kW) with ABT as opposed to 200HP (147kW) in the basic version. In spite of the HP boost the fuel consumption does not increase and the reliability of the engines remains the same. ABT also offers performance increases for the two-liter turbo diesel: depending on the starting power output either 170HP (125kW) or 190HP (140kW) is achieved – and both bring plenty of torque with them

2009 ABT Audi Q5

The ABT muffler is also part of the perfect appearance of the ABT Q5, and with its four tail pipes precisely indicates the sporting pedigree of the SUV. The use of BR alloys is also recommended, which look particularly good on the car in 22 inch form. The ABT Q5 looks impressive everywhere, be it at the golf course, by the opera or on the promenade
