I didn't read to much into it but is that the same engine from the Rs4 ? A 4.2L V8 ?

It looks like a TT on steroids.:) Seriously though, why do they bother, why don't the spend the development money on Lamborghini instead, I know which one I'd spend my money on.:D

Yes, it is very similar looking to the "cheaper" TT. Pitty really, something a bit more unique looking would have been nice.

Hint of a Bugatti Veyron about it IMO, they're both made by the same company...

The problem is definitely the similarity of this and TT - just looking at the dash you can see the A3 DNA. I'd stick to a 911, iconic, amazing, less parts bin...
