Very nice video of a car I am most excited about to see in its real flesh. Think its going to be something like the Panamera - the pics and videos upfront makes you uncertain - in real life it looks and feels good.

From worldcarfans:
The Cargraphic 997 Turbo GT RSC 3.6 faired quite well in a recent time trial, taking the crown of fastest sprinter in two races. The car matched up against several of the hottest, most sought-after supercars in four sprint competitions.
In sprints against the Aston Martin DBS, Geiger Ford GT, Gumpert Apollo, Königsegg CCX-R, and the Lamborghini Murcielago LP670-4 SV, the 997 took the title of fastest 0-100 km/h, posting a remarkable 3.0-second time. The same car reached 0-200 km/h in 9.1 seconds.
But it was the Geiger Ford GT that reached 300 km/h first, hitting that mark in 22.8 seconds. The same car had the best time going from 0-300-0 km/h, coming to a full stop at 30.3 seconds, a full half-second faster than the 997.

Audi R8 Clubsport
teamspeed.com have posted these new pics of the super-Audi. This time in matte black, and in even more productionready looks. They think its gonna be based on the V10, but I am not sure. Have a look at the exhaustpipes, they might be disguise, but an lighter car with a stronger V8 might be more involving, maybe. Time will show, the car might be ready for Essen later this year.
