Except that this thread was posted before the three you linked to so if anything, this isn't the repost, the others are!

well, I think that is different that is what Audi responses to the "checkmate" war... I double checked in the search to make sure if there any repost about the after of "checkmate".


" Audi then had some fun collecting photoshopped billboard responses from fans on its Facebook page before revealing its own retort. The new billboard, which reportedly went up today, shows the R8 supercar next to this proclamation: "Time to check your luxury badge. It may have expired."

Clever!!!

Well...checkmate refers to the end of the game. Meaning, Audi can't best that.

BMW rules.
Audi has the R8.

BMW has NOTHING to compete with it.

BMW's sorry ass is too busy building worthless heavy M-suvs.
