Audi RS4: More on the Audi RS4 Clubsport by MTM

Due to popular demand, here's more info and great pictures of the MTM Audi RS4 Clubsport. We even have a video. Nice!

At 20,000 euro, or nearly $25,600, the price for MTM's K540 supercharger conversion may seem a bit steep for most RS4 owners. This is why MTM boss, Roland Mayer, does not expect to sell more than a handful. In the context of the $130,000 Audi R8, however, the tag seems more reasonable, giving Audi's new supercar the kind of grunt that will fend off advances from pushy Ferrari and Porsche drivers. "I fully expect the greatest response to come from R8 owners, and that is the car we will be concentrating on with this supercharger conversion," says Mayer.

Even in standard form, the RS4 is nothing short of inspirational-one of our all-time favorite performance cars. The idea of giving it another 120 bhp and 96 lb-ft of torque is tremendously appealing. MTM offers more than one flavor of RS4. The example with a sport exhaust, uprated chassis and lightweight carbon fiber bonnet is just a bit harder-edged than the factory car. And then there's this.
