 Diesel Thunderbolt: MTM Audi A5 V6 TDI« »

MTM prefers the subtle art of visual understatement and maximum impact from the engineering within. With the Audi A5 3.0 V6 TDi, the technicians at Wettstetten have produced a tough rival for the near peerless S5. Independently tested at Hockenheim, MTM's Thunderbolt smashed the S5 lap time by a clear second!

Not liking the body kit, but if I had one I'd definitely look into getting this chip.

I finally saw an S5 in person last week, and I agree with most people that it looks much better in person. I was surprised that the seating position was so different from our B6 A4, since they're similarly sized models. I think I'd prefer a 3.0 TDI S-line with sport seats, though.

I said AoA ISN'T bring the A5 TDI over. It's not sweet at all.

Man... I can't wait for the AoA organization to wake up having the balls (in the spirit of the Lead Follow slogan) and provide the 3.0TDI throughout the product range. While in Germany with relatives I've spent time in a MY05 A4 Avant sport 3.0TDI 6sp manual - It's a hoot! Gotta Luv driving the torque… Make mine a MY09 A4 Avant 3.0TDI with the newest 7sp..DSG gearbox. Metallic silver over Onyx leather please. Oh yeah…a ski rack please for the excursions to Summit County, Colorado.

USA market timing doesn't get any better.... for a TDI sunami wave....

I'm LOVING this car!

VERY disappointed there isn't going to be an A5 TDI over here. I really wanted an Audi TDI and REALLY wanted an A5, so I guess I'm going to have to get the A4. I need a diesel with my commute...40 miles one way.
