Looks very exciting! But i hope they will keep the four wheel drive system.
5 Audis so far...currently:
2007 Audi A4 B7 2.0 TDI Multitronic
what if this is a test mule for the next R8? a production car will never have exterior slats like that.
Past- A4, TT, S4
Present- R8 V10
may be this is the RS8 or R8 RS... with a modified V10... the extra airintakes are a detail that this V10 needs more cooling I think

i think it is the covered version of the customers LMS , the the diffusor in the rear, the rear window and as RXBG already mentioned legally, at least in Europe, front wings like this are not allowed.

AMS on the R8 prototype:
AMS is saying, that in this style a Special Edition is coming to the market to underline the sportiness of the R8. They can also imagine, that the V10 produces more power... a roadlegal R8 with just rear-wheel-drive won't come! The interior will be modified,too.So zeichnet sich das Modell durch einen großen Heckspoiler sowie eine veränderte Frontpartie aus. Größere Lufteinlässe sowie kleine Spoilerlippen (Flaps) rechts und links bilden die neue Front.
In diesem Trimm wird Audi in naher Zukunft ein Editionsmodell auf den Markt bringen, das die sportlichen Gene des Audi R8 weiter herauskehren soll. Möglich, dass dem 5,2-Liter-V10 auch ein wenig mehr Leistung verpasst wird. Auch der Innenraum wird für diese Version leicht modifiziert werden.
Eine Clubsportversion, die lediglich mit Heckantrieb wie beim unlängst präsentieren Lamborghini Gallardo LP 550-2 aufwartet, wird es indes nicht geben. Allerdings wird das R8-Modell für den Kundenrennsport

I would like this car with a ± 500 hp 2.5TFSI inline 5 engine.
It will be light and fast.

Yeah, it would surely be a very HOT car...
Saw it at the Ring last tuesday... went quite good behind a 997 gt3 (iirc an RS)
Interresting info in the current sport auto 09/2010 R8 V10 supertest.
After V8 and V10 there will be a performance version of the V10 (i guest thats the one we see in these pics)
RWD idea was dropped very quickly (in order to keep the cars balance)
-120 Kg from the basic weight confirmed - through usage of lightweight material
Very probably no "official" hp increase (in order to keep lambo happy). That could mean that the engine in fact produces the full 560 HP the Lambo has
Now imagine:
R8 V10 "Performance" AWD with 1540 Kg + 560 Hp

I don't like the rearspoiler design wise, i hope they put on something better looking, like the one on the Race Taxi.

To your knowledge has anybody shoehorned the TT V10 into the R8 or the S8 ? could this be the performance version ?
