Unbelievable. Absolutely beautiful. Stunning. I don't see even the slightest resemblance to the RX-8 (which I also like), though. As mentioned above, it looks like a mix of TT and MB CL. I'd say it looks pretty production ready to me. I'd sell my soul to get one. Hopefully, they'll ditch the 600hp twin-turbo V10 and make it attainable. I think the S V8 would be sufficient. And, if they priced it around 50K, they would have a hell of a package. It would absolutely spank that hideous 6 series. Just shows what brilliant design can do...

Never say never. besides the LED lights...which could be change for production...their are a few things that one of the audi representative said if this was heading for production...one was they would have to make the rear seats functional in order for the car to carry four person and they have to change a few things.

This is one beautiful car that i would like to drive everyday. This is an Audi car.

Looks way more like the bugatti prototypes than the rx-8. I like.
