I like the idea. Did you say that they aren't real?

Nissan did it first.

Not quite. The nissan has a big 3.5L V6 mounted up front, whereas the Cayman has a smaller high-rev six in the trunk. I meant the R4 was more like the Cayman because of the small rear-engine design, not the actual look of the car.

They're not real, as in they are just renderings is what you meant right?

I love Audi styling. I doubt I'll ever buy one though.

Muffin, did you see the custom red S4 (I'm assuming) with cf hood in the P/R lot? I don't like the look of CF hoods, but wow that thing is hot.

Oh, I was judging based on looks only tongue.gif

Yep! Parked on one of the "parallel" spots, right? I thought the cf was tacky, but I was still staring nonetheless tongue.gif

They will be real... Audi and Porsche have a deal to share chassis for some of their new models. They will probably be pretty much identical except the drivetrains. The Audis will likely have quattro and V engines (or their 20v turbo motors) while the Porsche offerings will be RWD with boxer engines. I'm not looking forward to the Roxster (http://www.topspeed....er/ke2674.html), though. Porsche already makes one SUV too many :|
