Then you would really dislike my 600whpA4 race car.







But at around 2800 lbs with working power windows, dash and 2 front seatsit is about 400+ lbs lighter then a stock A4.

Ill take your engine. Just in my body

Edit: if it were painted id love it--I just feel like when i see that i am driving through philly. Six different color cars. It looks ghetto, I dont care if it is carbon fiber. Put it on your honda..

Im not trying to stir up a agument im just simply stating my fact.

Nice car.

Well its only 2 colors and the doors/fenders will be sprayed so that part of the kevlar can still be seen.


But this is a race car not some show car that needs looks to win anything it enters. The game here is decreasing weight and it isn't like the car is driven on the streets.



Sorry to tell you but CF doesn't just go on honda's, CF is used on very high end sports cars and is not always covered paint so I dont know why you would still think that CF only belongs on honda's.

Yes, CF is used on many race cars but...

a) they are race cars, not DD's that you see on the streets.
b) typically the CF is painted. Like the Enzo for instance.

I like CF if done right. I think 01audiA4 is trying to say is that he doesn't like the look of raw carbon fiber. I'm sure he isn't against the weight savings.

to each their own.

I know, but like I clearly said my car is not a daily driver. It was crazy enough at 500whp as a DD there is no way I would drive it while making 600+whp on the street.


I wouldn't cover up the kevlar/CF on my car sinceitis used to show case our CF product line that we sell.

Aaron Is correct.

When CF is painted i like it, On all highend cars the CF is PAINTED. Not just left a baby blue car with CF doors and baby blue door handles.

And 600 AWD Power is not that hard to handle. 816RWHP G35 DD on high boost.

And orA 414RWHP 350z DD.

Both those i have driven for weeks on end, Granit the G is hard as **** when you put the boost up you just spin out every five minutes. But whenever i take my buddys z Out its controlable.


I like the car, im glad there is a fast race Audi out there. LIke i said though, i am not a fan of unpainted CF. paint your car ill love it. No doubt.
