It shouldn't be priced a lot higher than the LP460.

I think Audi should move to RWD for some cars. Not all though, but the A6 would benefit particularly.

i think they would save alot of money, as well as sell more cars.

I think that they should definitely offer Quattro in every model (as they do), but also offer RWD in certain models if people do not want the Quattro (though I do not really see why a person would not really want Quattro).

I agree, a RWD A4, A6 and TT would be welcome.

Although that would also call for another very expensive RWD-based plant... Hmm, I guess it's one or the other.

You old school, old tech fools..! 4 wheel is 100 times better than rear, next thing you will want steam back! Leave Audi to the hi tech and look and learn you bunch of Appalachians!

Short wheelbase, plus high hp, equals MAJOR accident waiting to happen.....entre' Ford RS200, for example.

RWD and 680hp? This car can only go sideways!

I guess on a track with a significantly experienced driver but I would be terrified on the streets with that thing. I hear the 997 GT2 is quite the bear for this reason as well.

Knowing Audi RWD is under a big ?
