The Q7 is no concept. It's for real and for sale.....Not in the USA of course.
As for the styling... I'll take it, nothin like the family sedan/SUV having all wheel drive and doing 0-62 in 5.5 sec If you can afford the ride you can afford the fuel
"six-litre V12 makes its debut in the Audi Q7. It produces a colossal 500 PS and 1,000 Nm of torque.

The R10 V12 TDI is undefeated! It won every race it was in (7 to be exact) and would have swept the American LeMans series (10 races) if raced in all of them. Team AUDI went undefeated in LMP1 even with the old R8 racing 3 races. The R10 is looking better than R8, and team AUDI has dominated with
the gasser. Look out for Diesel power, more teams will be soon to follow the diesel lead.

Especially if it's one of truck models (Caddy). I've seen 'em go on eBay for $5k easy!

Check this little oddity, went for a little more than I'd consider paying but take a good look at that engine compartment and compare it to the MkII diesel...

Basically a VW branded Audi. I like it.

Attached is the Dasher diesel, not the little baby radiator and it's placement.

There's a 80's Rabbit pickup in WI with 340K miles still getting 54 MPG & not just a summer car. Bed height is perfect for one guy & a 55 drum. I offered $3K & he just smiled.

Yep-- and the luxury division's flagship that couldn't make it to 130k.

I would love to find one of the WV Caddy Diesel Pickups with nice solid shock towers......

One of the reasons that they are so expensive is that a solid one is quite rare!!

Another reason is that they are a practical, fuel efficient vehicle......and Detroit still hasn't a clue!!!!!
