No RSR

Post by Dave » Tue Apr 01, 2003 8:59 pm

According to Autocar the RSR project has been dropped.. Audi are going to follow the lines of a large sports coupe...

It goes on to say that Audi felt that the RSR was too similar to the baby lambo.

Sad news if true.

To be honest, I think this makes sense. They should keep the Lambo brand for the real exotica. What I don't understand is why Audi don't have a coupe in their range, apart from the TT. I think an S4 or S6 based coupe would be a huge seller - I know I'd be interested [img]images/graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

Why do the pics come out so small? The 600bhp Nuvolari concept coupe would be a great alternative to the RSR.

LittleSkull, seems to me that your picture`s are posting small, are you resizing them? they only need to be 50k or under in size and not pixel/resolution!

Try some with 400 x ??? (use keep aspect ratio if using paint shop pro etc)

And yes maybe Audi have axed the RSR idea and going to use that concept instead and call it something else?? who knows, Audi are keeping very hush hush about future models! [img]images/graemlins/biggrin3.gif[/img]
