Audi E-Tron Spyder spotting

Today I was up at Mulholland with a buddy. I turn the corner to the lookout, and I see two CHP flashing their lights with a Q7 and another car. Couldn't quite make out the car cause it was being blocked and driving away. I knew it would come back though because they were filming and an A7 and Q7 were still at the lookout full of germans wearing Audi t shirts. I didn't really talk to them because they didn't seem to know much english. So I see the caravan coming back up the road and it looks like an R8. Then it gets closer and from behind the trees I hear a turbo and knew it had to be something else. She pulls up, and my jaw just dropped. This is what I saw






Here's a video of it sitting still and the take off video.


And the take off

Glad you guys like it! It was truly mind blowing in person. I ended up talking to one of the guys. They were ip there shooting for a magazine. Theyre letting the press take pics for a few days. Also, for those that don't know, the guy was saying that it's an electric motor with a tdi motor also. Only one exists and has a pure carbon fiber body!
