    Every year, Europe's Volkswagen and Audi faithful head to Austria and descend upon the Wörthersee for the annual GTI Meet, a huge annual gathering of the brands' aficionados. Over the past few years, the Wörthersee Tour has been home to the unveilings of several concept cars, such as the 650-horsepower VW Golf GTI W12 and the Audi TT Clubsport. For the 2009 edition of the meet, Audi has unveiled the Q5 Custom Concept – a slammed, primped and pimped version of Ingolstadt's new compact CUV.

    In addition to the obvious cosmetic changes meant to showcase Audi's range of factory accessories, the crossover packs a punch underhood, where a 408-horsepower version of the new, supercharged 3.0 TFSI six-cylinder resides. This configuration is supposedly good for a zero-to-60 sprint of just 4.4 seconds, and the speedo's needle will keep arcing to the right until an electro-nanny kicks in at 155 mph. Other mods to the show car include spendy ceramic brakes to help wrangle all those horses back into their paddock.
