[V8] Audi V8 US version facts

[Bastian Preindl]

Great,

thanks a lot! That's a rumour I've read already multiple times in the 
German V8 forum but I wasn't aware that they have really been sold with 
G60 setups in the US as well (I was only aware of the replacement 
option). I guess the reason for that is the fact that in the US nobody 
would drive >100mph, hence the UFO was no real requirement. A G60 setup 
on German's Autobahn - good luck...

Regards

Bastian
