As badass as this thing is, I wonder what all the extra weight will do to the mass distribution. Hopefully Audi will figure out how to balance it, make it rev to 6K and give it a nice sound - then I think I'd take it over even the V10.

"Its sound is as thrilling as you'd expect in a sports car of this caliber. For all the subtle smoothness that typifies this design principle, the twelve-cylinder unit is full-bodied and equipped with energetic overtones that make no secret of its performance potential."
4500 Redline by pic of tach - I still want one.
"The V12 TDI crankcase is made from gray cast iron with vermicular graphite - a high-tech material referred to as GJV-450 that is already used on the V6 and V8 TDI engines. GJV-450, made by a patented casting process, is about 40 percent more rigid and 100 percent more fatigue-resistant than gray cast iron. This enabled the developers to make its walls thinner, cutting its weight by around
15 percent compared with conventional gray cast iron." |
