Hot on the heels of the RS5 shots comes this little number. Don’t worry, Audi isn’t teaming up with Mitsubishi. It’s a special one-off by the Quattro folks themselves, Audi. Branded the S5 Evo, the car comes with a 420 horse version of the 4.2-liter FSI V8 found in both the RS4 and R8. The company says they built the S5 Evo to gauge public reaction, and even though the car should carry the same suspension as the base S5, it has 30 less horses than the bad-boy RS5 (supposedly). We dig the idea of more power coming from the sexy coupe’s nose, but will Audi build it? Who knows? They could tell us their production plans for the next 100 years and we couldn’t understand them. We don’t speak German. But we sure as hell drive it. [Motor Authority]
