Mercedes Planning Audi R8 Killer

[SHIZL]

Rumours are building of a Mercedes supercar to rival the forthcoming from Audi.


German publication Auto Motor und Sport have released this rendering of what they think a possible Audi R8 killer will look like.
The article speculates that Mercedes could unveil the new mid-engined model sometime around 2010, with the entire production taking place at its AMG plant.
If we were Mercedes and wanted to build something to rival a Lamborghini based supercar, we’d ask McLaren to build it.
