The grille looks terrible. Hopefully they will clean it up for production.

Interesting that it's a U.S. Spec car.

What roof scoops? This is a normally aspirated V10 and therefore doesn't need them!

Ah you're right, they just made the sides a bit bigger IIRC.

Grille gets a big thumb down though.

Default I can't take it anymore. Any chance they will announce before the Paris show?

I can live with the grill if that is what it takes to hear that V10 over my shoulder. It just needs to be blacked out and it will be fine.

Default roof scoops were for the 12 cylinder TDI...

V 10 will need more air but it looks like they'll get in through the front air dam
