While it's a development prototype, the RS5 mule snapped during lucky-dog brake testing duty in the Alps strikes us as the perfect look for a topped-out Audi two-door built for high speed strafing. When a car is coated in matte black and backs it up with 400-plus horsepower of engine, it means business, and the RS5's stock in trade will be all-wheel drive enabled speed. <br /><br />If Audi really wants its new coupe variant to be tough, we propose sending a mule or two out for torture at the hands of automotive journalists. <em>Thanks for the tip, Julio!</em><br /> <br /> [Source: <a href="http://www.nextautos.com/spy-shots-audi-rs5-spied-testing-alps?gid=15483&nid=40717# gallery-15483">Next Autos</a>]<br /> <br />
