Did you know that the 5.2 V10 gets better gas mileage then the 4.2 V8?

when it comes to 5.2's i'm a sucker for the D3 S8....music to my ears
you can see the pulse with modulated taillights/brakelights flickering, you can hear the electronic parking brake right before the guy revs it(piston is driven by a DC motor inside the caliper via a mini timing belt) and the rest is pure Audi juice
That car does me justice.

I don't think that noise is the electric park brake. The rear ride height goes up in time w/ it
My guess is that it's the air suspension leveling.
The engine sounds awesome. I bet the neighbors loved that WOT high PRM tear down the subdivision street.

as much as that is a sweet sound... there's nothing like the raw 5T.
a higher RPM would only make this perfect.<ul><li><a href="http://media.audiworld.com/2009/ttrs.mp3">previously posted.. I know... but the TTRS's sound is a thing of beauty.</a></li></ul>

nope seems like it's raising but it's actually the guy moving the camera downwards
it takes longer to move up/down the suspension and it's completely silent, done it many times in school, it's the rear calipers that are audible
