Default 2005 rsr

Saw this on a net theysaid we'll have to wait until up to a year after the Gallardo comes out. they share the same chassis, suspension, and drivetrain so VW doesnt want to detract from Gallardo sales by introducing them at the same time. Especially because the RSR should sell for upto $70K less at around $80-$90K USD

What do you think? I think it's tight kinda reminds me of a buggati in the back.

I think it looks beautiful. Yes it does remind me of a Bugatti. Got any info on its power figure, weight and such?

That thing looks great. That is a great price too. Should come out the same time the new Ford GT arrives and will give the GT and the new Viper some good competition in that price segment.

It looks almost like the Veyron!!! Well, with a bit styling cues from the TT.

Any info on the powertrain? Since it's audi, it probably has quattro and a turbo engine.

All I can say Lambo is die(ing). Common, a Lambo and Audi use same chassis??? This makes the Galardo just some regular expensive car. This is painful to my eyes. How can they make Lambo and Audi share same chassis?

I feel sorry for Lamborghini, it's just not what it used to be. Where is all the exotocisim? Where are all the abstract curves? And now they make Lambo and some Audi share same chassis. Soon we'll see lambo make an estate.

Most of what I can assertain points to a very highly tuned 4.2L 40V V8 being the engine of choice for the Audi. But Iam not sure this is just what I have heard It could also have the the 4.2L Biturbo was the engine. It is a pretty nice powerplant.
And I have heard this also VW has branded thier supercar for every branch they have, none see production (barring say bugatti), if they put this out as an Audi, it will either get the BiTurbo 4.2L V8 or N/A 5.0L V10. No W-16 power for this thing. SO It's up in the air but Look's hella Nice!

IDUNNO!!!!

That car simple looks awesome. It reminds me a bit of the lexus prototype they used in the movie Minority Report. And it reminds me of the Bugatti, but much much better looking. I really hope they bring this car into production. This must be one of the best looking prototypes I've seen ever.

to me it looks like a smaller version of the bugatti, which is not a bad thing, but i wish they would have styled it in a different way. just take a totally new approach to it instead of making a smaller version of the veyron. but either way the car looks great.

This car's looks are definitely more wild compared to Audi's other and more understates designs with the exception to the TT. It kind of looks like the DTM TT without the spoiler. This car is an eye catcher!
