Dave Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 Now, This could interest me! The two-liter TDI unit under the bonnet of the Audi A3 TDI clubsport quattro delivers 165 kW (224 hp) and musters up 450 Nm (331.90 lb-ft) of torque – the sort of pulling power normally associated with a sports car. The show car races from 0 to 100 km/h (62.14 mph) in just 6.6 seconds and attains a top speed of 240 km/h (149.13 mph). http://www.fourtitude.com/news/publish/Audi_News/article_3997.shtml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

News_Stig Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 TSN News - Info and Pictures here. Its certainly a great looking motor, lets hope it comes out for real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N3WOB Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 Sorry chaps, looks like a chavved up fiesta...great internals and performance mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 Ditch the white, and loose the bolts on the arches/spoiler and i might think of switcihing to a oil burner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark88 Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 Looks wise it's awful, one of the worst audi concept cars in recent times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted May 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 Looks wise it's awful, one of the worst audi concept cars in recent times. Do you really think so? I love it, and would have it exactly as shown.. trouble is that Audi's design team would never allow it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidicks Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 Do you really think so?I love it, and would have it exactly as shown.. trouble is that Audi's design team would never allow it. It was more the concept (i.e. powerful TDi engine with huge torque and suspension tuned to suit) that i was approving of! Lookswise, there are some things I'd changed, but overall, it have it 'as is', albeit in a more subtle paint colour! Sidicks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S3Rob Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 Cant believe this is an Audi concept car. Thought it was a joke at first. Look at the state of it! Imagine if this was Ford's new 'RS' concept or something, we'd all be ripping the p!ss out of it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted May 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 I can see your point but it also looks like an audi rally homologation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s3geezer Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 Performance wise it is very good, but I still wouldn't get an oil burner, especially one looking as rubbish as that one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRobin Posted May 19, 2008 Report Share Posted May 19, 2008 I can see your point but it also looks like an audi rally homologation ....Exactly that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stooH Posted May 20, 2008 Report Share Posted May 20, 2008 Toned down spoiler, bolts gone from the arches and white removed and i'd be really interested in that, particularly with a DSG gear box fitted - which potentially would drop the 0-60 a bit further as well. Can't see anything about the MPG's of it though which surely if you're looking at a diesel is the main factor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garcon magnifique Posted May 20, 2008 Report Share Posted May 20, 2008 Do you really think so?I love it, and would have it exactly as shown.. trouble is that Audi's design team would never allow it. Have you seen the front? From the side it looks almost acceptable. Dull even (A3 with a chav paint job). From the front it is unforgiveably hideous. And lets face it, the chances of it coming to market in anything like that form are pretty slim. It'll look nothing like that, and it'll be slower than a 123d. Oh, and it'll handle like ... er, like an A3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Briggs Posted May 23, 2008 Report Share Posted May 23, 2008 If you ignore the paint job and the ironing board on the back, I think it looks OK - but they've got to come up with a better name than 'ClubSport'!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarMad Posted May 23, 2008 Report Share Posted May 23, 2008 That doesn't look at all bad, a bit chavy maybe but I think it needs it to be honest. Audi need to grab the bull by the horns design wise at the moment and this looks positive to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
