I usually don't cross-post threads, but this is very interesting:
Fourtitude.com - DE NYSSCHEN: Questions and Comments for Johan de Nysschen, President, Audi of America
I met Dr. de Nysschen at the grand opening of Audi Chantilly nearby. He seemed like a real enthusiast. Interesting news in the thread - I encourage you guys to read it. He starts responding around post #23 or so...
I think I need an RS5.
BEGIN JOHAN DE NYSSCHEN ANNOUNCEMENT
"There's no denying the Audi brand is white hot, boasting record sales around the world including a current shattering of the all-time record here in the USA. Leading the charge through this aggressive growth and even more aggressive growth targets is Audi of America President Johan de Nysschen. Over the years we've worked with him we've found Mr. de Nysschen to be highly meticulous in his management of the company and its practices, extremely defined in his understanding of the brand's position, and a rabid enthusiast for both Audi road and race cars. Following along as he presents alongside Stephen Colbert at a major auto show or simply following him in traffic as he launches his RS 6 Avant company car into a four-wheel chirped launch near Audi of America headquarters, we've enjoyed witnessing his breakneck pace.
We'll admit, we're fascinated with both where the man has brought the Audi brand in the USA and where he plans to take it. Following an in-depth conversation about motorsport with Johan and Emanuele Pirro at an R8 GT owner event held in Sonoma last month, we knew we'd identified our next subject for a guest appearance on the Fourtitude discussion forums and are pleased to announce that Johan has accepted the invitation.
On Thursday July 28 from 2:30-4:30 PM EST (US), Johan will log on to the Fourtitude discussion forums as ‘Johan de Nysschen’ in order to field questions by Fourtitude readers and other Audi enthusiasts in our Audi Lounge forum. Mr. de Nysschen will be checking in throughout that time block either via Audi Connect in the back of his A8 or from Audi headquarters in Herndon, VA.
Those of us on the Fourtitude staff would like to formally invite all of our current readers and anyone else to ask Johan questions, and in particular those about Audi performance. We're guessing much of this will center around hot new Audi models like the TT RS and R8 GT, as well as motorsport which is a particular passion for Johan. And, knowing our readers, we doubt it will end there."

Remember the good ole 80's when anyone could import a car directly from Germany?

[SHEEP] Sounds dangerous man. Everyone in those UNAPPROVED unsafe German cars will die if they wreck, and if they aren't wrecking they're killing the environment because everyone knows Europeans don't care about emissions. [/SHEEP]
