Hopefully, it will bear more of a family resemblence. Just as long as it isn't a chrome grill...

maybe that's the reason I'm never a huge fan of the profile of the Gallardo

Looks great. Im sure it wont drive much like the Gallardo despite the sharing of a few key parts and chassis.

Too much smart roadster.

Nice to see one in black

I think this and the A8 are the best designs Audi has ever done.
