The B8 doesn't make it's official debut until next month, but here's the latest in computer generated previews.

Of course the engines they list are what's going to be available in Europe, but we'll still be getting the 2.0t FSI, 3.2L V6 FSI, and we're supposed to be getting the 3.0L TDI.

Looks good, all the renderings on the net look totally different though. With the redesigned drivetrain layout, as in the A5, and 60/40 rear biased power distribution it should handle much better since most of that weight is not hanging over the front wheels. Still disappointed with Audi's conservative engines. Put some ***** under the hood. I guess they don't want to upstage the S and RS models.

The 3.0 TDI had some pretty impressive numbers.

Hard to really get a feel for it from CGI renderings, and the tail lights look irritatingly similar to BMW's new 3-series tail lights. Can't wait to see one in person, though.

I'm ready for the diesels to make it to the states.

Then again...maybe by the time I can afford one, I'll be over there.

I like the interior though it looks similar to the a6. I'd end up getting in an accident though always having to look down at what i am touching. it would be better near eyelevel. The headlights look awsome, I guess that will be audi's new signature, LED's in the headlights. they are doing them on the R8, A6, A8 and i think they do them on TT now. I could be wrong. Either way it looks good.
