Behind the scenes with Fourtitude editors on location around the world.

  1. On Location: Audi Forum Ingolstadt - Gulf TT, R8 LMS, A1 Competition Kit & More



    IAmAudi.com's post earlier this week of a gallery from the Audi Forum Ingolstadt reminded us we'd been sitting on a stash of photos from a visit we'd made ourselves back in November. Like IAmAudi and probably like every other hardcore Audi enthusiast who goes, there are a few must-see spots including billed visitor destinations such as the Museum Mobile, Museum ...
  2. On Location: Glacier White 2012 Audi A4 + Other Color News from Audi



    We recently visited Audi of America headquarters, coaxed into a visit by news that there was a German spec Audi A4 that had been built as a 2012 package mockup. And while the spec (Premium Plus, S-line bodywork and those 5-spoke wheels) may still be subject to change the most significant difference we saw on the car was its Glacier White Paint that was described ...
  3. On Location: Audi Experiments with Carbon Fiber Body Panels and TT Benefits



    Just before the recent Geneva Motor Show, Fourtitude visited the Audi Lightweight Design Center (ALDC) in Neckarsulm and had a chance to test drive a few very interesting vehicles (more to come on that later). While on location for the drives, we encountered a comparative display between the aluminum hood of a standard TT S-line ...
  4. On Location: Audi RS 3 Sportback at A50 in Audi Forum Ingolstadt



    A reader visiting the Audi Forum Ingolstadt this week was kind enough to shoot and share these photos of an RS 3 Sportback. Parked in front of Building A50 where the board members usually park their rides, this RS 3 appears to be Misano Red with black optics and with an Audi Exclusive interior. Our source tells us the interior is two-tone magnolia ...
  5. First Pics: Audi TT RS Coupe at 2011 Chicago Auto Show



    We've got our first few iPhone photos from the Chicago Auto Show where Audi of America is debuting the Audi TT RS for the North American market. The US-spec TT RS is expected to arrive around the turn of the model year in an August-September timeframe.

    From the looks of it this is still a German-spec TT RS. Nowadays outward production differences are harder to spot but US cars still usally feature amber reflectors ...
  6. Audi A7 Spotted at Audi Forum Munich



    As you may already know, Fourtitude was in Germany earlier this week for the unveiling of the Audi A7 at the the Pinakothek der Moderne museum in Munich . Flying out of the Munich airport on our way back to the States we popped in to the Audi Forum at the Munich Airport and were pleased to encounter the Audi A7 a second time. The car is currently on display in a ...
  7. Ready for Takeoff: Prepping for Fourtitude Le Mans Coverage and Social Media Correspondence for Audi



    I've just finished packing my gear and am ready to go. The flight out of Dulles tomorrow will take me to Paris and then it's a quick blast down to Le Mans on the TGV high speed rail. Le Mans week has arrived and we're excited about the prospects. As is the usual here on Fourtitude we'll be covering the exploits of Audi Sport, Team Kolles and their Audi R10 TDIs, the Audi-powered Spyker and the Japanese JLOC Lamborghini. ...
