Re: Audi scoop special: Audi R3 - the full story

One thing for sure BMW is not getting anything from the supercar market.

a BMW insider told me that the only reason BMW is not going ahead with the M Hommage is that they failed to find a partner for a mid-engine platform like how audi is with Lamborghini. Should they find one, they would have gone ahead with a supercar.

Mercedes has found aston with its VH platform which will give birth to a mid-engined aston supercar and therefore the nameplate "SLC" will not be used for the upcoming Gullwing, it will simply be called Gullwing. Mercedes is saving the "SLC" (C = Coupe) nameplate for a possible future mid-engined coupe, to go head-to-head with the McLaren's upcoming supercar.

BMW will be the only German premium carmaker without a proper supercar and even the big roadster is not certain to see production. Oh but they will have more trucks, from the biggest to the smallest..

the car is too crazyy. the designs are getting to complicated making the car look too much of a crazy car.
