No heritage and butt ugly. Props to them for trying though.

I love the front end and the window line, but those fenders... why?

Rumors and photoshop pics about a R5 are out there for years. I dont think Audi will do this. The TT is already having a wide range with the base model, TTS and TTRS.

If they ever build a R5 it will surely be above 70k€, so it's not really a "competitor"

Kinda like the basic shape. Wheels are horrendous and nightmare inducing to think about cleaning. But German never again for me. No Audi, no VW, no bmw or Mercedes. Never ever ever ever ever again. All my nopes in one bucket.

Audi would not gain many Mustang owners from this.....mainly from the price, Mustang €42K Audi at least €70K! I alread have an A6 Avant is and is very pleased with that and no way I would back down from the Mustang GT!

The Mustang and an Audi is in a completely different ball game....

Audis are heavy as hell,the S4 is very near the weight of the S550, around 3638 lbs Kerb (basically empty) 329 hp 325 torque so I wouldn't expect it to get away from an ecoboost let alone a GT for $50k

This thing would probably not weigh much less, have less power, and like all Audi coupes, cost more.

IMHO, These two cars are not even playing the same game, let alone being competitors. (I'll always take the cheaper faster one too):thumbsup:
