7 spd stronic box (not the low torque version) is stunning, larger number of plates on both inner and outer clutch-plates for smoother pick-up and seperate fluid reserviors for the gear-box and clutch-plates means less servicing as well  :drool: that a a longitudinal quatrro system are things I want in my next car  :drool:

That would be a B7 RS4's V8 on ITBs (because FSI won't work without a LOAD of messing about/custom parts)

I hope the RS3 does come along.

That air brake is peculiar though. In the pictures with it up it doesn't look as though the brake lights are on, and if it is an air brake when it flips up the third brake light will be obsolete as you cannot see it.

Also to me it looks as though the front wheels are bigger than the rear ones?

Thats because the front wheels are bigger than the rears  :signLOL:

I really dont htink that is an air-brake, it has raised up the other way compared to most air brakes, and from the position of the car I would have expected the car to be accelerating again by the last shot.  But if it is broken then why is the body work underneath a different colour?   :confused:

It also looks like it would push air downwards potentially lifting the rear of the car, unsettling it when braking into corners.

I think thats an experimental rear air spoiler, perhaps to see how big a fixed spoiler would help in the cars downforce. Putting a moveable rear spoiler on a relatively low performance Hot hatch is laughable.

Not sure why the rears arent bigger, but the fronts are to accomodate thoose mahusive breaks that its sporting! Not sure why it has a funny wing on the back either, maybe they are trying to get the rear to play up to test the ESP or quattro settings, hence the wing that is un-loading the back and smaller wheels??????  :stupid:

But it is a good question  :happy2:
