I'm not convinced that's the R400 - looks too normal.
I'm in spending £50k on a Golf - something I'd have no problem with if I had £50k for a car now - I'd want something outrageous (and therefore cool).
It seems to have flared arches. Add the wheels and finishing touches (yellow fascia line and calipers) from the concept and you're almost there...I'm in spending £50k on a Golf - something I'd have no problem with if I had £50k for a car now - I'd want something outrageous (and therefore cool).
To me that picture is misleading.
I'm sure it's been posted before but the link below is better at trying to demonstrate what it may look like.

If it does look like the pictures posted, I'm sad.

I assume the blue one above is some sort of test mule - I doubt even VAG would make it look that similar to the regular R. I have to admit the one in the video does look pretty damn good, but then the looks were never the dealbreaker for me.I'm sure it's been posted before but the link below is better at trying to demonstrate what it may look like.

Nice to see you're trying to poke the bees nest again!
How so? Inline fours don't make nice noises, with the possible exception of the old Lampredi twin-cam engines used by Alfa Romeo and Fiat, and the Honda K20 - and even with those I feel they'd sound far more musical with another two cylinders. Adding turbos only increases the dullness. Subaru flat fours at least make a bit of thunder, but their six-cylinder siblings are much nicer...andrewparker said:
