Audi Shooting Brake, Lector Edition

Speaking of Hannibal Lector, Audi will be introducing the next TT at the Tokyo Auto Show. It appears that - in honour of the show's closeness to Halloween - they've morphed the Audi grille into a take on Hannibal Lector's infamous mask.


Speaking of the new TT (the concept is officially called the Shooting Brake - which is weird as that's basically a British term for sporting station wagon), although it's more sleek it also looks more stale and boring - like an A3. Doesn't have the impact of the original. That and the rear looks like an old meld of original TT and Volvo SCC Concept.

This is the worst piece of automotive disaster I have seen in a long time. I'm not too huge of a fan of the Cadillac CTS in the first place, but especially not when skinned and stuck on the front of a Jetta. Ironically, I just watched "The Silence of the Lambs" yesterday, and this hack job reminds me of that scene where Lector cuts off that guys face and wears it for a bit to fool the police. This Jetta owner is possibly also trying to fool the police, and the results are equally horrifying.

Not content to simply combine two completely clashing car designs, extras were added - like those little things above the headlights. Are they laser guided? Maybe there's hidden guns for drive-bys...

Other touches include X-treme panel gap above the Cadillac grille, and front bumpers that point to the ground. Also note the VW logo in Cadillac wreath. Bottom pic is the car at it's best, with wider rims to fill out the wide-body bodywork.
