I've always been curious, why do car companies throw funky designs on their prototypes? (BMW 1M or F10 5er, for instance)

It does a really good job of disguising the true lines of the car

Yeap, it would take a hell of a lot of effort to photoshop those designs off and make it look half normal too.

Doesn't look like it as it's supposed to price below the TT. Rumor to have 1.4TSI or 2.0TDI with weight around 2600lbs.
It should look very close to the e-tron.

IMO this will go directly after 370Z type of market.

directy after the 370z, I don't think so.
370z is a drivers car with 330hp, this little guy will be lucky to have 180 hp assumig your engine choices are correct.

I know you said rumor, but there is no way in hell that car will weigh 2600lbs
Hopefully I can afford this audi!

S4 being close to 4000lb, I'll be surprised if this R4 can get under 3000lb with quattro.

although the supercharged 6 would be amazing, at the very least it would be sick to have the inline 5 turbo they are putting in the TTRS! 360 horse and 332lb-ft
