Autoblog has reported that according to sources inside Audi, the ever-popular 4.2-liter V8 may be here to stay, at least until 2011. Considering the new S5 Cabrio, S4 and A6 are all now sporting the supercharged 3.0-liter V6, many thought the S5 Coupe would follow suit. However, due to popularity and demand of the V8 the S5 Coupe will continue using the "8 banger" possibly through the 2011 model year.
