This aint a scene, it's God Damn Arms Race: Audi Registers SQ5 & RSQ5 nameplate


When, I sat in History class and they taught us about the race to get on the4 moon between the Yanks and the Ruskies, a part of me really felt like I had missed out on a time when innovation, was at the fore. No countries are out there actually competing to show you who's superior, or so I thought. There seems to be a cold war going on in Germany, and those who can afford are all the more happy for it. The big Three car manufacturers have been at it for quite a while, but recently things have gotten ridiculous, If Beemer, cranks the power up, Benz is not too far behind whippin up an AMG, with more power, and now Audi is giving their SUV, a shot of pace in the form of a SQ5 and an RSQ5 version. , let me at it.details after the jump...


Rumors of impending S and RS versions of the Q5 have been milling about for a while now, and have now been given a voice once again courtesy of Car and Driver magazine's source in Germany. Little in the way of details beyond a brief mention were disclosed, but word has it that Audi has registered both the SQ5 and RSQ5 nameplates with copyright authorities. That doesn't mean any such vehicles will ever reach our roads, but if the reports are true, it does at least indicate Audi's giving it serious thought.
