It's just a concept though and pretty much a pipe dream.

They seem like entirely different approaches using the same base ingredients. The Audi weighs a full 800lbs heavier in its concept form, while featuring literally double the horsepower (362 vs 700) and an extra 170 lb-ft. It's almost like comparing the BRZ to a 370Z; one's geared at maximizing performance, the other's geared toward practical everyday driving pleasure.

Plus, one's a concept.

I'm sure they'll both be interesting cars no matter how you slice it (provided this concept actually comes to fruition this time around).
