Is this purely a concept? Or are there remote plans of building it? If so, what are its projected competitors?

Just curious.

Audi Nuvolari concept looks pretty good IMO.

That's a beautiful car and I don't think it looks at all like the RX8. I think it looks a lot more like a Chrysler Crossfire, though it's prettier. I'd grab one just for looks, I think. Audi's are beautiful (though the TT isn't that hot in my eyes...though it's at least different than anything out there).

You could buy 10 RX-8s for the price of that one Audi(if it were produced).

The Nuvolari is a luxury supercar offering things that the RX-8 couldn't dream of.

600hp twin turbo V10, all wheel drive, active air suspension, the finest leather and interior materials, fingerprint recognition, LED headlamps that auto configure their brightness and can turn with the car.

Not to mention all the little things like radar enhanced cruise control, aluminum space frame, the door handles that are flush with the body of the car till you unlock it and then they retract and are illuminated via LED. Also the front grill is not a copy of any other cars design, but dates back to the old Audi(auto union) racing days...

Not an RX-8, or anything even close to a copy of it.
