Audi Quattro S2


Give Me Give Me

Short wheel base 408hp in stock form. 

The race version is AWESOME!!!!! Any rally fan will fall in love with the tarmac version of the new Quattro.


It leads back to the group B days of WRC and the Pike Peak of the time.

Almost no imagery of this motorsport version of the concept online.

 But the concept is sound.

Only the stockey is a little less aggressive. I like it when they build a motorsport version also.

Design SOS

Frontal design recently is horrendous.

The poor man's chrome rolls royce grille is a plastic hell of ugly!

Even honda are getting guilty. It's almost like someone is trying to save paint.


The latest aborition is the Holden W427. The ugly beast is just making performance a joke.

It used to be that performance cars were sleek and elegant 2 door machines.
Whoever thought that this should be the face of all sports cars from the last few years needs some kind of re-adjustment.
At least this leaves the aftermarket free to easily design something better.... Maybe
Some try to improve this with a tiny carbon cover and a few carbon accent pieces but these are all the aftermarket is brave enough to produce and yes with limited pieces to work with, they all look the same.

I scan the web looking for someone brave enough to redesign the ugly out of these cars, they seem to afraid to remove the one ugly identifying feature. The GRILL.


Looks familiar.

Be brave and be individual. Avoid the corporate image and improve it.

My hat goes off to seqential. One company brave enough. Even a small change is good.
