Starting at $675k. With only 499 units worldwide, I'm guessing the dealer markups will be steep.

It will be hard to get for sure. I'm just slightly relieved that the company is finally steering away in design language from the recent underwhelming designs both inside and out! Hopefully a D6 with BOLD design language and clean tech interface in the interior and a Bentley CGT drivetrain will make an appearance!

Am I the only one that would rather they bring back an R8?

NO. A 200k ICE only car would be better! but at least the corporate design is getting more unified with the Concept C!

*edit* Also, in the age of Hybrid supercars, this is a pretty good Halo for Audi.

It may be a technologically great car, but first impression for me, it does not hit a nerve. It does not give me the urge to buy one. At that price, there are better more proven options. I am sure they will sell every car.. Now, we need Audi to tell us about the new D6.

The shape is slightly too square for my taste, but it's not far off. It actually looks a lot like a Bugatti.

Doesn't really matter, though. If I were spending $700k on a car, it won't be that one. I'd be looking for something pure ICE with a V12.

I agree - too square. As I look at the car I keep thinking if only they rounded the edges a bit and put a window on the back so folks can admire the engine ... It's close, but Audi's are more organic than that.

When the TT MK1 came out it was too round! Personally I really do like it, and I love the functional purposeful interior. I just can't afford one .

If I were to buy a 700k car it would probably be a 12 cilindri. The 812 competizione are 2m plus now! But lets not forget the most important point that no one has driven the Audi yet!!
