It'll never be 1,600lb once it's "Americanized" and made to meet our crash standards.

Nice photoshop.




Not that I wouldn't love to have a ~2600 lb version with either the 2.0T or the 3.2 (might nose heavy?) Audi Roaster.

Opel got it...

Its the Opel GT (they get the turbo version only) Why someone chose a Kappa car to photoshop into an Audi I will never understand.
well, Saab's getting it too, and it might be called the sonnet... looks pretty sweet to me.

Too clean to be a photochop. More like a computer render.

I love the look of that rendering, but agree that the quoted numbers seem very optimistic. I would get one in a heartbeat if it delivered on those specs and actually looked like that.

I don't think there were any lines worth quoting in there, unless you occasionally break out into a slightly shrill, keening sound when you are home alone in the swimming pool or something.
That is disturbing. Seriously. Like I need a shrink now kind of disturbing. Really. /shudder.



I really dig it. Not sure how practical it would be for a DD or even an occaisional car, but if that weight could even get close that would be fun at the track.

I would love one, they look fantastic. The fun plus 50 mpg would be a great commuter car. The problem is, all that carbon fiber and "limited" production means, what, more than $45K?????
