Audi Avus quattro Concept

[PRY4SNO]

I know this is old, but still fascinates me! Seems like Audi is ahead of their time as a matter of company policy. Interesting to note how much of the technology featured in this 1991 prototype was then integrated into production cars within ten years.





Too bad they didn't produce the Avus, I bet it would have destroyed F40s and 959s!

This is the first time I've seen this one actually… very nice.

0-60 in 2.9 seconds - not too shabby either
