The mother is the Audi TT and the father is the Gallardo. Or is it the other way around?

Saw the car at the Dallas auto show yesterday, and it is beautiful. Very nicely done. Didn't care to much for it till I saw it in person.

Car magazine with a notoriously pro-Porsche bias in comparing the styling of the R8 to the 997TT stated "The 997TT looks like a frumpy retro joke next to the R8".

If they admit to that, there must be something to it.
