My dad had this car (stock of course). He said he got over 30 mpg on the highway. I remember driving it as a teenager. The engine was super smooth and it could take corners with incredible poise. It also had 3 (!!) individually locking differentials and could get up anything in the winter with the right tires. He got over 250k miles out of it.

200,86 mph !
323,25 km/ h !
Not bad
for a 5 cylinder with 2.2 liter (134 cu.in. )
Damn, it’s so stunning what can 2.2t R5 do with car, that sound, acceleration and speed, really impresive. Even these days.
It was calculated, that the Audi would quallfied 7th in the Nascar Race that yeah with that speed.
I owned one of these still my favorite car I ever owned it was really quick and straight pipef
Back when Audi was cool
Would have loved to see the Audi 5000 IMSA against the Callaway Sledge Hammer !
The sledgehammer have a little bit more power !
And is a corvette, not a sedan.
But the same wight !
Legendary
Dang! What's the song at 3:09
They should have raced it against a Superbird.
