    what is this?



    notice the flares in front of the wheels. front race splitter. the wheels look like 20's. rollcage. different spoiler. also- not seen is the IN license plate.

    is this:

    A. rumored RWD only "last farewell" model for 2013? maybe it'll be a track only model (front splitter).

    B. test mule for next gen R8?

    I think I read somewhere the famous audi "Sport" "brand" will return, as in "Sport quattro". So this would make it an R8 GT Sport. This is however, pure speculation from my head...

    if audi makes a rwd version i will be very surprised personally. it'll reflect the thinking at audi HQ and reflect a major change in the future of audi.

    imagine. bmw makes an awd M5 and audi starts making rwd cars.

    Through out the heavy quattro system that's why Audi can reduce more weight on this R8, the superlight weight version?
