Haven’t Lambos always had a problem with quality? I thought they got a lot better once Audi took them over but apparently they are still having issues. I’m sure at some point Audi will make even more of an impact to try and tighten things up, it’s terrible that they are ruining their own reputation. ---

I’ve never owned or worked on an Audi so those things slip my mind. But the R8 fire issue was a concept, no? Wasn’t it the turbo diesel model and they decided to cancel it after that incident? ---
