I have got more pictures of this car.It is interesting to look those pics.Because the car is barely hidden.Looks like the production model.
Will come with the same chassis than the Lamborghini Gallardo, but less powerful.

this car is gonna kick some butt for sure.........but I wish they made the 610 hp version as well...like the concept one had 610 hp.

but the worst part is, this car is gonna cost less than the Gallardo, but i think it looks more exotic then the Gallardo.......Audi/Lamborghini should come up with a new design for the Gallardo when they air the R8 in the market....I know the Gallardo just came out new, a couple years ago, and its too early to change the shape... but for marketing strategy, they should make the Gallardo more exotic, since buyers will be paying more bucks for the Gallardo than the R8.

this car will cost less than the gallardo.......the article says that the starting price will be around 95K Euro.....which i believe is close to 120k usd......and that price is for the 420 hp V8 version........and there is this another one, which will carry a 450hp V10.....so if the V8 is around 120k usd, then the V10 one should not cost more than 150k........which is abt 30k-40k less than then gallardo.......so if i had the money and if i were to buy one, i would have gone for the V10 R8, instead of the gallardo.......cause i simply like the looks of the R8 better, though a Lambo is always more prestigious than an Audi.....but still, i would have gone for the R8.

and btw, for the V10 R8, they are using a detuned Gallardo engine...which provides 50 hp less than the Gallardo engine....so that the car doesn't effect gallardo's sale. and the V8 one will carry the RS4 engine.

exactly Zoheb you are right.Audi is indeed less prestigious than the lamborghini.There are politics of VW group behind the story
