Is Audi really playing these dirty tricks?


It might just be a coincidence S2. I doubt Audi would be this cunning and gutsy to street park two of their most expensive cars. Putting an A8 against a potential porsche 911 customer is stupid, if you must play such games then park an R8 (and leave those beautiful LEDs on all night )

Ahem, Porsche owns 31% of the VW group, Audi's parent company... and it's trying to buy out the rest of the stock too.
So I wouldnt say it's dirty tricks or games.

The Company that got dealership of Porsche in india, has also got the dealership of Audi, therefore a showroom near Worli is being setup.Since the showroom is not ready they are operating from the Porsche showroom, thats how we see Audis parked outside. Got this news from somebody i know at Porsche.

it would look decent but i think its the stock 17/18" rims on the cayenne s painted to the same colour as the body. had they been bigger im sure it wouldve looked better. will get pics though.

I've seen a burgundy Porsche in GK1 with matching 19" rims as well. Doesn't look half bad, but that's about it.
