I'm disapointed with that 7:45 time.

And 0-200 in 12.0, while it got 10.8 the other week. Wtf??
 
Damn damn damn, sometimes the Sportauto drive weak results.
They are usually slower than other magazines, because of their different testing methode (2 persons onboard). Also Hockenheimring's surface is not as grippy as an airfield's.
 
Short results: Automobilismo

Audi

Audi AG is a German automotive manufacturer of luxury vehicles headquartered in Ingolstadt, Bavaria, Germany. A subsidiary of the Volkswagen Group, the company’s origins date back to the early 20th century and the initial enterprises (Horch and the Audiwerke) founded by engineer August Horch (1868–1951). Two other manufacturers (DKW and Wanderer) also contributed to the foundation of Auto Union in 1932. The modern Audi era began in the 1960s, when Volkswagen acquired Auto Union from Daimler-Benz, and merged it with NSU Motorenwerke in 1969.
