    the rear window vents look different too. and there there's the front wings integrated into the bumper. this could be the full on 556 hp lightweight version. does Q man have any information? maybe this will finally be the R8 to beat the ZR1 around the ring.
    Past- A4, TT, S4

    Present- R8 V10

    Upgraded quattro able to send 100% power to the rear?
    + a stronger engine
    + less weight

    =

    EDIT: or maybe it will be this with an Audi badge?

    I heard something like that... The sportiest version of R8(R8 RS or RS8 or R8LMS) will be RWD ONLY. Little bit more power(only 10hp or so), 40kg less at least...

    Wouldn't removal of quattro destroy the weight balance? Just a guess...

    imagine it will get DSG, Quattro with 100% to the rear and some weight reduction -> no GTR will compete with that, neither a ZR1
