Such a beautiful car. I wish it was one solid color versus the funky CF panel on the side.

Beautiful.

I wonder how the new NSX would par w/ this Audi. Supposedly the R8 will carry a $100,000 sticker price or so I read in a magazine.

The rear is the best part of that car, interior is very sharp as well.

Not sure I would spend $100k on it, but its different.

I'm just curious, esp. since you have such a diverse opinion on cars; what do you drive?

that's a very sexy piece of machinery. some of the color combos aren't the greatest, but you can't hate carbon fiber.

nice car... as for the CF side panel, you can have it color matched from the factory if you want.

What a beautiful car. Sophisticated, sporty, and simple all in one package. I have taken such a liking to Audi products.

I didn't see a black/cf combo-that'd be hot. I like the white/cf and red/cf combos tho

there are a few different options you can have for that part of the car. In a press release I read about two weeks ago it mentioned 3 choices,.......CF, matched to rest of the cars paint,.......and something else I cant remember.



Anyway,......SWEET!!!!!!!!!! I love it in white,.........and it would be amazing in black!!!

I never ever liked Audis...
