Interesting nomenclature. R8 sounds good, TT and Q7 are a little strange.

that is one sinister looking sports car. it's hard to get used to the odd numbered designations that they have planned.

I'm not feeling this car one bit. There's nothing about the styling that really grabs me and I am a HUGE fan of Audi's designs. It just looks like the step child of a TT and Veyron. The proportions just don't say "supercar".

I guess I'm in the minority this time.
