What a waste of money



from the article:
While it has the appearance of a conceptual RS5 Coupe, under all that muscle and glitter beats the…puny heart of 2.7-liter V6 diesel with just 188hp (190PS) – great for the pump but not exactly sports car material, right?

I like the looks personally but nothing I would do to my own car. I'm sure they put it on the cheaper A5 simply as display model to sell the body kits. Although I do see a lot of poser cars in town with fake badges.

Imitation is the highest form of flattery....is it not?

I've seen a few cars with badges which didn't come on them. S or RS in particular. Supercharged when it isn't. I always wonder how they get the things, since I can't imagine Audi selling them.

I've also noticed some rice burners with what has to be nitrous. They're very fast, but really cannot corner well, and I wonder how long before the motor smokes.

It is the quiet ones which tend to be really really fast. Like an RS5 with the badges removed, ditto M5s. I think they pull them so that they don't get noticed.

ruined the car with the front bumper/hood/ghey spoiler.

Only if you imitate the performance. Can't think of anything more lame than making a car appear to be something that it's not. Moreover, how many people even car what car you are driving, much less check out its badges.
