I dont wanna say too much until we see it uncovered completely, but so far I'm not feeling the new grille.

Wow those grills are huge!

...and I have to agree with you there

None of you guys see the trailer the mule is testing? It is likely this is just a grafted set of grills to allow air to cool the engine. Looks like they are doing load testing on the new V8TT

still pretty camouflaged, but that exhaust looks nice.

I would have thought so too, but what about the CS Concept ?

Love those new headlights!

i like the low and sleek profile in the sketch and it looks like it's somewhat translated into the test car. and the rear end of the car looks like the old 7, so i'm thinking the builkiness of it is just camo...

yeah the profile is nice, what are you thinking of the grille? the more I see it...

That grille is not real. If you look closely between the headlights and the grille you can clearly see it is a fake piece.... They most likely put that huge grille on to allow better airflow during testing. Can you say V8 TT everybody??? I cant wait!!
