Is that a variant of the TT? It looks quite nice, very mean.

I would defeinitely put my money in, if I had any.

Do you know the approxamite weight?

Production or concept? If it's a production car I can't see how they'll keep it anywhere near 750 kilos, that's less than a Lotus Elise. To get it under 800 kilos they'll need to extensively use carbon fibre or similar lightweight materials, driving the price up. 260-270bhp in a lightweight Audi (with RWD, please) could make for a lot of fun, but I can't find any other info on this, so I'm assuming it's a concept.

Audi is building it in conjuction with KTM. It might end up a KTM only car.

I love that thing! just imagine how much fun that'll be with DSG ( or S-tronic as audi now calls it) on tight, twisty roads..

Sweet Jay-sus!

The first Audi since the A8 I like.

....Forget the GM-Nissan-Renault alliance, someone get VAG on the phone at GM so they can build this car!

Reminds me of the VX220, I like it. DSG would be nice, as would mid-engined layout.

At least it doesn't look like a VW.

Wasn't there a ultra-lightweight VW concept just this past year? Not the Eos, not the 3-wheeled thing either. The EcoRacer! That could be where they're getting 750kg. The 2.0T should fit in without a problem.

And my first instinct on seeing the image was "Saturn Sky", too. Nice body kit, GM.👍

I like the mean look to it.

260 bhp on 750 kg that thing must go fast as hell. It looks evil too. It totally eats the elise or opel speedster. (vauxhall vx220 or something in the uk right?)

Is that a Kappa? If it is, it's the sexiest Kappa there's ever been....

 

[YSSMAN]

It is what the TT should have been all those years ago. Makes you wonder if it could happen with all of this "Z2" news floating about...

It reminds me of the Sky, but it looks pretty cool.
