Did you know, Audi makes you sign an agreement saying that you will not sell the car for at least one year after you've purchased it.

The MSRP for the V8 version is around $118,000 and when they release the V10 model it will be above $150,000 for it. In Germany they are going to have a V12 TDi that will be released in a year or so.
