Definitely an Audi...

The Rosemeyer Concept was named after Bernd Rosemeyer, a race car driver for Audi. Rosemeyer, considered one of the finest German drivers in his time, died at age 28 in a world record attempt on the 28th of January, 1938 when his Auto Union Streamliner rolled over several times at some 440 km/h (274mph) on the Frankfurt to Darmstadt autobahn.

Engine: 8004cc W16
638 BHP
Top Speed: 350 Km/h (217mph)

Wow.. that's pretty damn ugly.

castex · 11-02-2004, 12:27 PM

I love it. So German; furiously modern yet classically inspired.
/interior's a bit tarty, mind

A riceboy car for the affluent German.

woah... what's with the ferret ears?

That is one ugly ass car. Sad that it came from Audi, they usually make really nice cars. I hope that is just a prototype.

If you're talking about the little buds on the roof, this from audi.com:

"In place of rear-view mirrors, the car has a number of cameras that project the vehicle’s surroundings on to monitors in the cockpit."

Cool idea, but you gotta wonder how it works in the real world.

It certainly isn't going to get lost in a parking lot.

16 cylinders can forgive some styling.

Just plain disgusting. The interior (save for the 4 spoke steering wheel) is pretty nice looking though.

It looks like a frowning cartoon character. If I want 16 cylinders, I'll take a Veyron W16.
