Default Not good...

especially since their ego is bruised by the R8 somewhat.

Default good for audi sedans, bad for audi sports cars

I know from personal experience a local Audi/Porsche dealer was told they could not sell the R8 by porsche. Their porsche division moved and now they have a R8 in the showroom.

Default it also means porsche would have reason for audi to be successful

i dont get why everyone thinks that porsche would sink audi considering that would mean they own them.

Default they won't sink audi, just the sports cars

Or the sports cars will always be a tier under porsche.

But I think your RS6's and RS4's will be safe. It's just the R8 and R4 will have an uncertain future.
