Audi basically built a UFO back in 1991
- The Audi AVUS concept car is one of the weirdest we’ve ever seen
- It looks like a UFO that has escaped from Area 51

The shiny concept car in the above video was built in 1991 by Audi, and it looks like a lost UFO.
The Audi AVUS has awesome batwing doors and a ‘three-headed-dog’ exhaust pipe like nothing we’ve ever seen.
Driving the AVUS is something else, and there’s no other way to describe the experience of driving it, other than the opposite of smooth.
Someone should let Area 51 know that one of their UFO’s have escaped and it’s been clunking around since the early nineties.
