The 200 was pretty much a 100 with different lights, slightly different bodywork, bigger engine (turbo 5 cyl.).
The Audi V8 was a further evolution on that platform, i see the V8 as the final car before Audi came at the same ( and higher) level of BMW and Mercedes. The V8 was the first real attempt by Audi to play with the big boys.
Then came the first full aluminium A8 and the rest is history.
I was a real Audi fan back then, my VW-AUDI dealer often gave me a 100 with the 136 hp 2.2E 5cyl to play around

, i tested several Audis from the first S series, the S2 with 230 hp was a cool car back then.

Wow! That's a lot of horsepower. The Bentley Flying Spur only has 500 hp with the same engine. Torque is a little low, my 10 year old car already has 700 nM of torque and only 476 hp. I'm expecting more than 750 nM with that kind of horsepower.
Looks like an A4 ...

... which again looks like an A6, which again looks like an A3 (the front at least). Sorry to say, but this car is outright boring, despite its possibly thrilling technology. I think it makes more sense to buy a standard sedan with around 150hp and invest...
