Back once more to the Chengdu Auto Show where Audi launched the mighty RS5 Coupe earlier this week, with a very pretty babe in a plastic mini skirt. Audi indeed, knows how to please the crowd, like Kia does not. The RS5 Coupe is new for China and has to compete with successful offerings from AMG and M.

The Audi RS5 Coupe is imported and therefore not cheap, at all. There is only one, priced at 1.119 million yuan, or 187.000 USD. But!, check this: power comes from a 4.2 V8 which poops out 450hp and 430nm, 0-100 is gone in 4.6 seconds. Top speed is 250 km/h, or around 280 km/h if you pay a bit more. Babe is not for sale but her skirt will do some 150 yuan tops.
