I like it :D :thumbup:
Its a shame the production version deosn't have the half cage like the testing mule.
Not sure about that gearstick either. A bit too forwards/backwards for my liking....

What else do you need? I assume shifting is through paddles on steering wheel.

I'm really surprised at how the shoulder belts are mounted. CF exposed to sun and heat for years, and you're going to trust it with your life? I bet they'll make you replace it every couple of years.

That's the most impressive set of numbers I've seen in a long time. I've never been enamoured with screaming little engines that have to rev to 6-grand before they feel their oats. As far as the weight, if you've got that kind of torque, who cares?

I'm not sure what it costs, but there have to be plenty of other, lighter cars, available in that price race that are much faster. It looks like a road legal race car, how could it possible way more than a stock car?
Of course I suppose its all a matter of preference. Leather, CD, climate control, heater and cooled seats, power everything, etc. is not what I look for in a car. My daily driver either doesn't have any of those, or in the case of CD, and power accessories, they mostly don't work. ;)

For the (probable) money... I'll take mine in bright red, with a black prancing horse on the hood on yellow background. Thanks. :p

I'd rock that...
But I'd rock this first. 2004 RS6 Plus (edition of 1000)

Mmm, nice. But I'll take the BMW. (BMW drivers get more you know.) ;)
I don't care for that fender flaring at all. Those airdams along the side look almost bolt on aftermarket. It seems to me they could have blended the whole thing from front to back more smoothly. If those airdams have a real purpose (brake cooling?) then they should be more intergrated with the rest of the body.
Otherwise, a really schweet car! :thumbup:
