I'm sure it's a great car but life is to short to drive an ugly car.

That is an amazing 0-60 time, for any car! Most liter bikes are around that...

Wonder how many 3.3 second runs you can manage before either the clutch or gearbox is destroyed though...

I'm not soooo sure about that number. Is the Panny Turbo fast and will it bitch slap your S63 and M5? Yeppers. All day. But 3.3??

What did they feed it? Blondes? (obscure movie reference)

Drove it several times, on roads and on track. Its a great car to drive and has great build quality. Materials inside are first class.

The deal breaker for me are its looks and the price. At $150K for a moderately equipped turbo, I would rather pay less and get an S63 or the next B7 that looks better and can hold five people and has a bigger trunk. My 4-door car just needs to give me all kinds of luxuries and practicality with a dose of fun on streets and highways. I don't need it to compete with my sports cars in the canyons or the tracks.

When they make the 928 and make it look better, then it may be interesting...
