My Ride: 2008 550I LOADED, all options except HUD and NV
Who cares - it's an Audi = glorified VW = BORING!!!
Any vehicle sold by a company that puts a flower vase as standard equipment in any model ever (new Beetle) loses all credibility.

maybe its me.. but when i read the title i swear i didnt even think anything racial till i read everyones comments. it kinda shcoked me but as i read the article it seems it was misread and then in the hands of the media the project car name was used and translated.. im sure if the project car was red it would have been called "red power" silly is all

Mel, I was with you until I saw this still from a leaked salesforce training video:
"Who's going to sell the most Audis?"
"I am. I am. I am"

Good grief.
I guess that Daimler and AMG should apologize for the SL65 AMG BLACK as well.
Sensitivos...

But thats called the Black series, not Black power. Perhaps white series would have been more appropriate than white power? I think so

+2......too much sensitivity and political correctness in the world. People are people, and someone will always find a way to criticize another! Get over it, its an awesome car that just happens to be white!

My Ride: 05 645ci Steptronic, Sport & Cold Weather Package, Black on Black with Blackwood Interior, PDC, Illuminated BMW Door Sills, Logic 7 Sound....Mods and pics on the way !
It's not the color that may be offensive....the phrase "white power" may be offensive to some because it's a term that neo nazi's have used. I think "white lightning" would have described the car better myself.
