R50 pricing in Australia

More on the pricing for those interested.
The Australian dollar = about 88c to 90c cents US, that's about $110,000 US to enter club R50;)

R50 V10 - same displacement and fuel economy. So what did VW do to get the extra power and torque? Programming? Different intake, fuel mapping, exhaust? Possible to upgrade a "stock" V10? :D:D:D

In a word yes, so far as I am aware it is possible to remap the car (certainly in Europe on our fuel spec anyhow) and get the power gains shown here without too much effort.

Interesting - 4 diesel offerings (if you count R50/V10 seperate) and 1 gas offering. Pretty much the opposite of the US.

Also notice some nice shots in the brochure of the financial district in San Francisco even though it looks like the Treg has been P-Chopped in. Looks like California street west at Pine on pg 10 and then looking east with the Bay Bridge in the background on pg 11. Truly a global vehicle.
