 The
svelte new Passat CC unveiled in Detroit will form a big part

could be dropping the Passat name from this vehicle (at least
in the U.S.) in favor of the "CC" moniker alone, the

R8 V12 TDI LeMans
 Diesel
engines may be more efficient than the gasoline-powered competition,
but good old fashioned petrol power has always held a huge advantage
when it comes to aural bliss. The engine audio emanating from
the Audi R8 V12 TDI LeMans still struggles in comparison to the
best gasoline offerings out there, but man does it sound cool.
At idle the R8's oil burning, twin-turbo V12 sounds like a Super
Duty on speed, but on acceleration the 500-hp powerplant comes
alive. Click
