Not true at all...
580 like RS6?
I believe Kreso wanted to say that it won't get a forced induction setup. That being said, 550 bhp sound realistic.
Just the gallardo v-10 will do fine for my tuner.
What gives with the marketing of this car? non-existent
in the states.Dealers here don't want to carry the line
because of Audis computer requirement. Is it the same in Europe?

I don't see why the flagship car shouldn't have the flagship motor. I think the RS6 motor would be perfect for that great chassis...
Grant,
RS6 engine is one of the best engines on the market IMHO.
BUT, what about gearbox? TIP is big NO,NO for R10 and new 7speed S-Tronic(DSG) is still not ready(DL500 is internal code for it and bloody thing still can not handle more then 550Nm of turque so redesign is required)... So, currently manuals only are available-either Graziani gearbox(not my first choice despite its use in R8) or Getrag(the same one as in 997 Turbo manual, great and reliable gearbox but, impossible to implement R-Tronic or sequential manual system in it)...
