The original Pikes Peak show car was based on the Touareg/Cayenne chassis,
but Porsche apparently would not agree to an Audi version.  Hence,
Audi had been talking to Ferrari/Maserati about a joint venture on
that front.  I think that means if it ever comes to fruition it would
be quite a bit in the future.  By then the SUV craze might have
waned and the project may never see the light of day.  Which is just
fine by me...  I really don't think an Audi SUV is such a great idea
anyway.  Audi should stay with its core value of building sophisticated
and stylish performance sedans, coupes and wagons.
