even though audi doesn’t currently use turbos they still use the “T” for forced induction. the 3.0T is their supercharged v6, versions of it are in the S4, A7, A6, etc.

No, but for you to say another car “is not that special” you should prolly drive something that is more “special”.

Considering I haven’t seen one on the road yet, I’d go ahead and consider the car slightly special.

opinions, opinions, opinions…  
they arent special until they come out with the turbo model. then i might think its special. although the n/a version should make a good autocross car, since ive heard its supposed to handle pretty good. but i would prefer to have a fast and well handling car.
