sry Ellessar90 but thats not an A8. its a test mule for the actual car and because VW and Audi share platforms they're just testing the engine and other aspects with body panels from different cars. I think only the rear lights and the bumper are from the A8.

The A8 has 4 doors, this is a coupe. The article also says that the car is based on the A8, which the current phaeton sedan is actually. Thats probably why the VW coupe was tested under the body of the A8. It is common for car manufacturers to use the bodies of other car companies that they own when testing a prototype.

I can't see why this is a VW coupe. I think we are looking at a porsche 928. Because it has a long hood (VW puts the engine always far in the front) and we see 4e exhausts and a wide body.

hope that VW bodysculpts this coupe in the same manner as the computer simulated facsimile. it looks beautiful to me. wonder if VW would still use the platform of the existing Phaeton sedan ?
