That front end looks absolutely bad ***. I think Audi will sell a ton of these. I'm just a tad bit dissapointed in the HP #'s. I think it should have 400+

Not sure whether this design will last very long, looks nice now but might become dated rather quickly.

if it was 400hp or more it would be perfect

I think that the back end looks like the new BMW coupe.

Just chip it!

The APR chip for the A4 2.0T (200 HP stock) gives 30+ horses. On a car like that, it would probably give closer to 50+, not to mention a lot of torque.

Et voila!

The S5 has a naturally-aspirated V8 (354hp stock)... A chip wouldn't do much for this car. The reason the 2.0Ts are getting so much power from ECU upgrades is beacause they are turbocharged and much more tunable... The S5 on the other hand, doesn't have much of a market when it comes to engine performance upgrades.

Hmm, not that impressed. It will undoubtedly be heavy (and front heavy) With the numbers chipped 335s are putting out I don't think there is any contest IMO
(Not to mention it looks like a 335 in all but front view)

ya, this car is supposed to compete with BMW's 6er, not the 3er.

since the new m3 isnt looking too good, this could be a winner, as its a very nice looking coupe. needs more power tho, wheres the 450+ hp RS5?
