Beautiful....The interior will probably look a little different in the production version, but it's beautiful inside and out. Can never have too many supercars around. This may cut into Lamborghini sales, but only if they price it in the same bracket. I suspect this will be around $100k? I wouldn't buy it for more even if I could.

I'm guessing an Audi with a bi-turbo V-10 with 610 hp will cost a bunch more than 100K. That is pretty super bad-ass though.

Most luxury proven supercars are loosing big dollars on the second hand market and as Audi already has a low residual value here in Australia id hate to buy one new :eek:

Could be gearing /shrug

But i'd think a car like that would be geared to at least 180
