Wow, a dream car. This car has tremendous power, (eg Horse power is **500bhp @ 4500rpm and torque is 738 lb ft @ 1750rpm), speed, (eg 0-62mph: 4.2sec / Top speed: 186mph-plus), gets 28.5mpg, and is environmentally friendly. Now, if they could get the price down where it competed with the VW TDIs, they would have a winner. LOL
Excerpt: #-------------------------------- Torque is everything. I saw an overhead camera shot of a restart in an ALMS race and the thing that struck me was the way the Audi TDIs just visibly accelerated faster than every other racing car - and they were all accelerating as hard as they could. The reason is purely the torque of their diesel engines. #--------------------------------- Regards, LelandJ Adam Buckland wrote: > > > http://tinyurl.com/46k8ag > > > > Audi R8 Diesel > > > The world's first roadgoing diesel-powered luxury sports car will appeal > both to lovers of speed and the environment > > > > > > > --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- > multipart/alternative > text/plain (text body -- kept) > text/html > --- > [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
