Yeah I really can’t wait for this car, it looks great, not to mention its shared mechanicals with the Lamborghini Gallardo are going to make it one of the sickest performance buys there is.

Leon,

Haven’t you noticed that the drivetrain on the RS cars (Quattro) and the M3’s RWD are VERY VERY different?

audi’s RS models are very good cars, if you consider the engineering levels and tecnology, but their are not as good to drive, even if you haven’t drove an M3 yet. and looking at the R8 aspect from the spy-movie at nurburgring, this one in particular doesn’t seem to be very good even to look at. a sort of big cayman. an then, even if the tag price is that one of M6, V8 vantage, SL or 911 GT3, none of you notice that they are some VERY VERY different cars?!? come on…

Can’t wait to see this car. Audi is really going to have an image builder in this one. A roadster version is obvious.

This thing is going to be the next hit for Audi. It’ll outshine everything else on the road when it comes out. However, it’ll cost around 110k sticker. That’s M6 price. That’s 997 GT3 price. Mercedes will likely release the re-designed SL series around ‘09. Lotus will release their new Esprit around then as well. $100k sport cars are a tough market to compete in.
