Captain, Your S7 is Ready!

It would seem that Audi's done preparing the S7 for it's global debut this fall at the Frankfurt Motor Show as it was seen not too long ago with no masking tape or covers on it at all. The S7 is the more powerful, more aggressive sibling to the very pretty A7. Under the hood, Audi says you'll find a 4.0-liter 435 horsepower Turbocharged V8 engine, the same one to be used on the new baseline Bentley Continental GT. With the help of the Quattro all-wheel drive system, Audi speculates that it will do 0 to 60 in less than 5 seconds on its way to a limited top speed of 155 MPH. Audi's been giving this car some very thorough tests to see if it's ready for some fast paced driving. It's been to the Nürburgring, where they honed in the car's weight distribution and speed. It's been to the Alps where they tested it's all-wheel drive system mixed with its sport-tuned suspension. After other thorough tests, Audi finally said,  "It's Ready!" Well, technically they didn't say it like that, but you know what I mean. Expect this car to be quite expensive, though, as the A7 3.0t already costs about $60,000. So if you like how it looks now, save up, cuz it's gonna get even more pretty.
