 Well, you could really rice up a 4.2 and get the numbers down, but have 
 this guy  looked at the car for god's sake?  The thing is beautiful...

    Ok, lets face it, you pay $60k for one of Audi's flag ship models with 
310 hp, it is not unreasonable to want to be able to out accelerate a Toyota 
Corolla.  I have a feeling that the drivers did not extract the most out of 
the 0-60 time in that test...8 seconds seems really slow for that car.  The 
A6TT does it in about 5.9, and I have read that the 4.2 is a little behind 
that.
