2008 Audi A5 Coupe
Remember the Audi Nuvolari show car? That 2003 concept was design chief Walter de'Silva's first project at Audi; as we now see, it was also a faithful predictor of the new Audi A5, the brand's first full-size coupe since the Audi Coupe Quattro disappeared from more
2008 Audi R8 vs. 2008 Ferrari F430 and 2008 Porsche 911
Diving into Spring Mountain Motorsport Ranch's tight turn 2, the Porsche 911 Carrera S nips under the Ferrari F430. A silver scimitar suddenly splits the red haze. Porsche and Ferrari are natural foes--always have been, always will be. But will the sports car more

First Drive: 2008 Audi TT Roadster
Although a final judgment here awaits the arrival of U.S. production vehicles, there's no doubt the Gen II TT Roadster is a lot more car than the original. more
MTM Motoren Technik Audi TT - Tuned
Those wacky German funsters at MTM have already doctored the new-generation Audi TT. From the company that brought you the crazed twin-engine, 860-bhp TT Bimoto comes four versions of four-cylinder turbocharged tweakery. more
Penske Audi S4 - Tuned
To promote its new West Covina, California, dealership, Penske Audi built this car over the last year as a promotional tool to drum up support for the dealership network. more
Head to Head: 2008 Audi R8 vs 2006 Porsche 911 Carrera 4

Comparison: 2007 Audi S6 vs. 2006 BMW M5 vs. 2007 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG
Each of these luxurious, convenience-loaded machines is capable of performing feats of time/space distortion totally unbefitting an automobile with more than two doors and no rear wing. more
2008 Audi TT roadster
Replacing an automotive icon with a model that's equally visionary, charismatic, and unmistakable is surely one of the toughest tricks for any car designer. Case in point: the Audi TT, whose original form was designed by Freeman Thomas and J Mays. At the Los A more

The overwhelming first impression of the Audi R8 is just how effortless it is to drive. Ride, stability and agility are truly impressive. more
Audi TT Roadster - First Look
No, it won't have a folding metal roof like practically all other modern drop-tops. But the new-generation Audi TT Roadster will have extra soundproofing in its cloth hood. And it will get a fully automatic `hands-free'operation which takes just 12 seconds to do the business and stows away more effi more
2008 Audi R8
It's one of those amazing roads you can't help but come back to: a rhythmic mix of fast and slow sections, first wide open and then tree-lined on both sides, mostly smooth but dotted with patchwork surfaces here and there, a mild yet steady climb from the bott more

First Test: 2007 Audi S8
The key to invisibility: In our week with this german-plated tester, nary a single car-savvy angeleno's head was turned. And, quite frankly, that's just the way we liked it. more
2007 Ariel Atom
You don't so much drive an Ariel Atom as shotgun it through the landscape. Wind goes up your shorts. Bugs go down your gullet. Gravel, freed from the bonds of gravity by the Atom's passing vacuum, wanders up into your underpants. Faced with the whole of creat more
2007 Audi TT, 2006 Volkswagen Rabbit, and 2007 BMW 335i - Fast Forward

2006 Audi S4 Avant  -  first drive
It was probably a blessing this car left our office. The car is so good I behaved like a spoiled 12-year-old high on a keg of Mountain Dew. During the S4 Avant's brief time with us, I pulled editorial rank and refused to share. Few cars elicit this type of behavior. And for all intents and purposes, more
