Ok, just did a little research.

Latest press release says that the V6 3.0 TDI (which will be a great setup btw) will be available in the US in late 2008. If the 12 cylinder comes here it would be sometime after that...

Perhaps some 6speeders with friends in high places can chime in...

That would be a kick *** SUV to have over here, I hope Audi does indeed bring it over. I love Audi's and always have but their time frame to get the cars over here is just plain ridiculous and disappointing. We always have to wait 2 years for anything good to get here. I believe I read somewhere that an estimated cost here in the states would be near the $100k mark which is going to be a tough sell for sure.
Time will tell the truth.

I definitely agree...

It is nice though that we are at least getting the 3.0 TDI for the time being.

I would drive a 3.0 TDI Q7 over any cayenne short of a Turbo.

Much nicer than the Cayenne. And the Interior blows it out of the water.

Found some more pics:












I think I just like looking at the engine. If I had one I would just drive around with the hood off.
