I've been out of the loop for a while in terms of future plans for Audi models - but when I recently mistaked a s5 for a rs8, I toured back to the forum. Hopefully there would be potential for that car to be a reality.

I'd rather it have a biturbo V8, but a V10 would be unique too

Yea, can't argue with that at all. Either platform would be great - the bi-turbo for the modding ...

In the first A5/S5 UK specification guide the V10 was listed as an option (as was the S-line which also failed to appear). However, very quickly (within about a month) a revised version came out with the V10 no longer listed.

So, its possible the V10 could come along but increasingly it looks like the fuel situation and general spending habits may decide what engines and cars appear in the near future.
