Audi Avus
<img src="http://www.theautobahn.com/audi/models/prototype/avus/1991_audi_avus_quattro.gif">Is this the fastest accelerating car on the Planet? Goes 0-60 in 2.9 sec!!! faster than Lamborghini? Top speed 211 MPH, 340 Km/h. This car is a marvel, I really admire German technology.<ul><li><a href="http://www.fantasycars.com/derek/cars/images/audi/avus_1.jpg">Click here to see a larger pic.</a></li></ul>

What do you mean "never made" ?
You mean you think that this pic is not real? Everybody knows that Audi Avus was made in 1991. I'm sure you have not heard of Audi Spyder either!!! You seem to be sleeping for the past decade. Don't tell me where should I send my messages. I think you shouldn't come here at all, cause you don't know anything about Audi concept cars.....

Relax, guy....
I am sure what he meant is that it was never produced for the open market (neither was the Spyder). Further, I am not aware of any independent test that confirmed any of the specs and times you tout. Yes, that is what Audi claimed, but at the time the car was not a runner, I do not believe the engine actually worked but was a mockup made of wood (all at the time of showing).

NO...
...it's not the fastest!!
I don't know what the fastest car is but the '94?(street-legal) Porsche 962 will do 0-62 MPH in 2.68 sec and run 231 MPH!! That's at least one that's faster....Porsche made around six of them.

yes, i've seen pictures of each in Audi history books that I have at home. As far as sleeping for..
the past decade, I don't think I was since we've already discussed these cars recently. Try using the search function or check a few pages back on pg 2 and 3.
As far as posting things like this here, maybe its relevant, but not really since these have never been made other than for use as concept cars.
Also, please learn some manners and respect, so that you can politely respond to a post instead of over-reacting as you did.
