 I HAVE OWNED AND DRIVEN THIS WONDERFUL LITTLE ROCKET FOR A COUPLE OF YEARS.  IT WAS QUICK, AND NIMBLE, AND I JUST LOVED IT.


HOWEVER...


MY CAR SALES GUY  TOOK IT UPON HIMSELF TO TEST IT'S LIMITS...AND HE BOTH FOUND, AND EXCEEDED THEM!   HE SLID IT OFF A CORNER, AND POKED A TREE WITH IT.  YOU CAN SEE FROM THE PHOTOS THAT IT ACTIVATED ALL OF THE AIRBAGS, AND THE ROLLOVER PROTECTION SYSTEM.  RUINED THE FRONT END.  IT'S A MESS!

JUST OVER 50,000 MILES.  GREAT COLORS.  A VERY STRIKING AUTOMOBILE.

THE "S" IS THE HIGH PERFORMANCE MODEL IN THE AUDI LINE UP.

THE INTERIOR AND THE BACK TWO THIRDS OF THE CAR IS STILL BEAUTIFUL.  BUT IT MAKES ME SICK EVERYTIME I LOOK AT IT. 

SOMEONE MORE TALENTED THAN ME NEEDS TO TAKE THIS HOME.  LOTS OF POTENTIAL!


PLEASE NOTE THAT TWO OF THE PHOTOS ARE BEFORE THE ACCIDENT.  AND ARE NOT AS THE CAR APPEARS TODAY!

Audi reveals R8 E-Tron Piloted Driving concept at CES Asia

Mon, May 25 2015

Designed as they are to take the driver out of the equation, you might think that the idea of an autonomous vehicle would seem diametrically opposed to that of a supercar. But Audi disagrees. The German automaker has cooked up a series of "piloted driving" concepts that are increasingly focused on performance, and this could be the ultimate iteration yet. Audi's latest Piloted Driving demonstrator is based on the R8 E-Tron. It's altogether almost identical to the one we saw in Geneva, packing an electric powertrain to deliver 456 horsepower, 679 pound-feet of torque and a 0-62 time of 3.9 seconds. Only in this case, it can do it all on its own, without any driver intervention. To pull that off, Ingolstadt has fitted this show car with an array of sensors, including a new laser scanner, multiple video cameras, ultrasonic sensors and radar transmitters at both ends – all handled by a central "driver assistance control unit." It's the latest in a series of concept cars that has already included a version of the RS7 Sportback designed to lap the racetrack, and the Prologue concept that drove itself to CES. This concept was similarly unveiled at CES Asia, the Eastern counterpart to the tech expo we usually catch in Las Vegas. Just what the point is in engineering (or buying) one of the best-driving cars on the market and then handing over its operation to a computer, we don't quite get. But at least we can rest easy knowing that Audi is not giving up on performance as autonomous tech turns the driver into just another passenger. Related Video: Audi R8 e-tron piloted driving technical concept car 340 kW of power, 0 to 100 km/h (62.1 mph) in 3.9 seconds and a driving range of 450 km (279.6 mi) – Audi has extensively developed its all-electrically powered high-performance R8 e-tron sports car further. The technology study is one of the highlights of CES Asia, and it brings together future technologies – which relate to lightweight design, high-performance drive systems and functions for piloted driving. The Audi R8 e-tron piloted driving concept car is based on the multimaterial Space Frame of the new production R8. A rear car body module made of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) integrates the luggage compartment, which extends the frame structure. The walls of the luggage compartment shell are corrugated, so that they can absorb extreme amounts of energy with little material weight in case of a rear-end collision.

Is Audi getting complacent and suffering from brain drain?

Wed, 27 Nov 2013

The argument is made in a Reuters article: Audi is falling behind other luxury brands, such as Mercedes-Benz and BMW, due to a lack of research-and-development spending and "brain drain," or the migration of top executives and R&D chiefs to other parts of the Volkswagen Group. Reuters notes that Audi's current R&D chief is the third in 16 months.
Audi, which contributed to 40 percent of VW Group's $11.6 billion in profit the first nine months of the year, is delivering cars at a record pace: 1.31 million were delivered from January to October 2013 versus BMW's 1.35 million. Yet Audi, Reuters reports, doesn't have a halo car akin to BMW's new electrified i3 and i8 or an answer to Mercedes' plug-in-hybrid S-Class, and the R&D spending at Audi is less than BMW and Mercedes by a fair margin. It's noted in the article, however, that Audi benefits from other R&D spending within VW Group.
Reuters mentions that BMW "trumpets its new 'i' series" and the new Mercedes CLA and GLA ranges are winning "rave reviews" as part of its argument that Audi's recent lack of technological innovation could hurt future sales. Those cars do pack tons of new technology, some of which are firsts for mainstream production cars. But last time we checked, the i3 could be causing BMW's stock to slide, the CLA isn't receiving the rave reviews that Reuters would have you believe and the GLA hasn't been reviewed yet.
