I'll bite. Infiniti is supposed to debut a new G35 at NY. I wonder if the AWD model will now come with a manual trans? The S4 convertible and the Concept X (EVO) will be there too. -juice

Replying to: ateixeira (Mar 31, 2006 7:14 am) ...People said the new TT was supposed to be at Geneva, and of course it wasn't. My only concerns with the G: Interior Refinement Lack of a real performance model (G45-i? "i" would be a trendy name for a performance model, plus it's the first letter of "Infiniti") I have an S4 Cabriolet, so I'd be happy to see the new one, but I live in Chicago... I've seen pics of the new one- looks like a less-subtle version of mine, with that grille. I give it a 9 out of 10- fix the rear lights! Mine are perfect! (or at least give it the stepped-light treatment like on the sedan) |

the problem with the current G35 IMO is that the power band is so high in the rev's it feels like you have to stick your foot through the floor to get it to move. The Nissan 350 has a much better map in the software for torque. If they could change this in the G37 I think it would be a much "sportier" car. I guess displacement is up some in the new model as well. I read somewhere a complete redesign for the A4 is coming soon. {2007} Will the S4 come out immediately as well?

Replying to: markcincinnati (Mar 15, 2006 2:06 pm) No need to strain your memory mark. You can look up EPA numbers online, including audi's. "I can imagine many reasons why my production Audi A6 quattro gets a mile or two lower mileage than an otherwise identical 2WD version would get." Otherwise identical? That would be interesting in regards to your point.  I know you're a huge fan of AWD, but, c'mon. If AWD got better fuel economy--it would get better fuel economy. It doesn't. As for the verisimilitude of the study, some time with google turned up only this forum. dave

Replying to: dhamilton (Apr 02, 2006 11:48 am) However, unlike Mercedes-Benz which puts the AMG model out simultaneously with the intro of a new model; Audi usually gets the S4 out about a year to two years later. (Think: BMW) I think it's kind of stupid that Audi is only selling the RS4 Cabriolet in Europe. I understand the Avant, but possible CLK55/CLK63/M3 Convertible owners would take a hard look at the Cabriolet. I'm sure it would have handsome sales in cities like Los Angeles, and European citizens aren't exactly in the mood for a horsepower war this year. Of course, we always are.

cause I think autospies has photos of the new body style and says it will be out in 07. I realize that wouldn't make sense with the refresh just recent. I wonder if the new body style will show up at the New York show?

Replying to: dhamilton (Apr 05, 2006 7:49 pm) Here're the Audis that will: A4 2.0T/3.2 Cabrolet; S4 Cabriolet (new styling) TT Coupe (I saw the pics released- looks awesome) A4 won't be at an auto show until next year... at the earliest. I have a feeling they'll show the 2009 or 2010 A8 next year or the year after that too. |

Their names aren't familiar yet but the Swedes are producing the hottest supercars in the world. The Koenigsegg CCR now holds world record top speed 241+ mph (beating out McLaren). . . Both Saab and Volvo lend their hands in the making of the record breaking supercar. With the arrival of these supercars, owning a Swede car suddenly becomes a hot commodity. Beside the safety conscious crowds, people buying Volvo today are the youngs and fashionably sensitive. http://www.koenigsegg.com/ Another impressive manufacturer of supercar coming out of Sweden http://www.bebi.se/
