It's a shame Audi never made the R8 with a V12 TDI

There need to be more cats that are weird for the sake of being weird. Plus, how awesome would 738 pound-feet of torque have been?

I pretty much believe any cool TDI sportscars we would have gotten have all been canned.

May not be a TDI but they do make a mid engined V12 car..

Or you could get an SL65 with that much power coming from a V12...

VW/Audi won’t get much of a favourable welcome if they brought one out now.

I can see VW/Audi focusing more on their TSi engines rather than TDi or V10-12 engines.

Best typo ever.

Just be happy we got a V10, there aren’t enough V10s going around.

Agreed about more weird cars. The SLS AMG was pretty special, for the doors and that ridiculous long hood.

I have a chrome extension based on this XKCD. Sometimes the changes make it into my posts.

That would be a super car to end all supercars. The sound alone would be amazing

Fun fact, I drove one of the rare Audi TDI R8 prototypes. It did not catch on fire, thankfully.

I use the same extension, I made a few edits though. I removed the car entry and modified the electric part. Now I see tons of articles/posts about wizard powered cars.

I did wonder why they never did this to provide a link to the TDI Le Mans cars. Would have added to the ‘usable supercar’ thing that the R8 has going for it too...

Lack of balls I think...

That's so cool. How was it to drive?
