Which Track?
What time of year?
What else was on the track?
Did you go behind or ahead?

What is the begining speed of superior acceleration?

I was hoping the-rednecks-in-charge would allow this to come here. I'd love this as a daily. Especially the tdi.

I am sure afretes will answer you but we recently had a meet at Audi of Mississauga where Alex did a slide presentation on his trip to the factory where he tested the A1.

Gee... if it is not available in Canada, I will just get investors and import 100 to profit.

One is for me .. YOU BETCH YA

All I need to clarify, is this

This is a front wheel drive but when you step on it, it becomes a quattro and the rear engine kicks in

Is this right?


WHOOAAAAA!
nope just front wheel drive. The s1 is supposed to have quattro however.

the a1 sportback is going to be launched in 2011. I think its cooler looking.

Audi has a track set up next to the Munich airport on an empty tarmac. We tested the A1 and the Mini, as well as the A8, 7 series and S class.

Is this the production model?.. Or still concept?
I don't see the resemblance to Mazda3 at all. Sometimes we have to be a bit more discerning when making comparisons. Such broad generalizations of common features can make one seem inattentive or blind to detail.

Mini sells well in north America. I'm quite certain this car will do well here if Audi brings it over.
