2 Door RX8 BY AUDI Called R4

If this ever goes to production with a mid mounted engine like the AUDI R8 , ITS GOING TO BE YUMMI

Looks similar to our RX8

I can see some similiarities...enough so that I'd call it a near blatant rip off but IMO it looks too much like the "typical tortise shell" of all their cars to be any good. I'd still get the Rx-8 anyday of the week over that.

Its Audi's new supercar. I think it will be somewhere in the 500-600hp range if I remember correct. Its a very nice car from all angles, and has some very cool features.

Your reffering to the Upcoming Audi R8 ..........$280,0000 Aus

The R4 should be around $120,000 Aus

I am not the only one who can see similiarities between the cars .

Your eyes only see Missyk these days

As a mather of fact i have placed orders with various car companies subject to a test drive

But dont worry the RX8 as well as the RX7 will stay in the family , benefits of having 3 sons
