Motor Trend's April issue includes a piece on page 18 under "trend" titled "Audi ramps up RS." Could not find it at motortrend.com but it says the TT RS is coming in "about two years," followed by this on the RS6:
"The current 435-horsepower V-10 will be more aggressively tuned to tip past 500 hp, with braking and tires to match. The torque bias will be to the rear, and wider fender flares and deep front and rear fascias will tip off onlookers. Launches after the TT RS."
Which means sometime mid-to-late 2009 at the soonest, right?
I was glad to read they plan to keep the cosmetic aspect of the current model that I like best, i.e. wider fender flares...according to MT at least. Rocker panels like the current model would be fine with me too, if well done. Both help set the car apart without being too obnoxious IMO.
