What about the a4 allsport? or hows about make a a5 allsportback?

one can dream...
I was pretty shocked with the engine choice also. I really was expecting the same VK50VE that they put into the FX50. I guess the midsize sedan market demands more? who knows...
Acura's Kinetic Blue is one of my personal favorite blues. Its alot like the ZR1's, maybe a bit darker.
I thought it was common knowledge that blue is the fastest color...
I usually love what Audi does with those front LEDs. I almost feel like it destroys the front in this case.
Perfect list! I honestly agree with every single part of that list (maybe besides "Green Behind the Iron Curtain" cause im not sure what thats really about). I guess you can also give thanks to the age of truely shattering budget performance cars. when you think back a few years, when 0-60 in 5 seconds was really fast for most cars (forget exotics). for 30k you can do 0-60 in 4.7 (370z). You can now do 0-60 in low 4's (possibly 3.9?) for 60k, and take your family with you (CTS-V). 10k more and you get a low 3sec 0-60 car which preforms amazingly (GT-R). Im sure there are plenty more to add to that list. Point is, alot of people take for granted how amazing cars really are. Even the cheapest cars today give you so much. Jump back 20-30 years and see what 60k today (11k in the 70's, 23k in 80's 37k in 90's) will buy you back then.
The Carrera gt pretty much nailed it, and still is motivation for my success. but a flat 10 however, would have made it perfect.
There are nights, which I dream of what a 911 would be like with a mid engine. If instead of trying to defy physics with engineering, and trying to overcome the disadvantages of a rear engine car, Porsche could just refocus their efforts on making a true TRUE mid engined sports car.

I do believe Porsche has all the right ingredients for making the perfect sports car, but for some reason, they will just never give it to us. They just show us pieces in isolation, saying look how good this and that is. Maybe they are scared, or the thought of such a creation is mind boggling to those German engineers. All I can do is marvel at their feats, and hope that one day Porsche decides to build the perfect car, A modern, road going version of the 917 if you will.
Actually, when they claimed to be in Kazakhstan, they were actually in Romania. If you knew the language or what the money looked like, it would be a dead giveaway, but the masses had no clue.
As much as I love the idea of a track based Cayman (Imagine Cayman RSR) this one just doesn't sit right with me. I cant figure if its the paint job or the kit or whatever. Id imagine a GT3 would be cheaper, and probably just as good as a performer. pass...
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I commonly need to boot a system from an external disc and take a snapshot of the host system. I also then need to burn a copy of the image to a DVD. While I can do it with two separate external devices, and two power supplies, and two I/O cables, it'd be nice to find a small dual-drive enclosure. It would need to have USB, eSATA, and FireWire. Either slim-line or half-height bay for the optical burner would be fine, and space for either a 2.5- or 3.5-inch hard disc. Any ideas?"
