VLT: Please, no!

http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b76/VanLuxemburg/L8Teasercopy.png

VLT has done it. Our redaction received an E-mail just a few minutes ago, with an image attached to it. Oh, Oh, what could it be?

In reality, it is a teaser shot of the VLT L8. There's still not much known about the car that will be placed above the L7, beyond the fact that it will be more luxurious than the L7. Or not? The L9 is an SUV after all. VLT is really leaving us in the dark on this one.

The picture shows only a shot of (presumably) one of the headlights, and a row of LED lights under it. The rest is completely dark. It is currently impossible to tell what the L8 will be, but we think that this vehicle might be topping the VLT model range, and symoblise the ultimate luxury vehicle.

To give you some insight of what we had to go through, here's the mail:

Subject: It is coming....

The Revolution starts May 2007.

We'll keep you posted.

Could it be..?

Maybe this vehicle, spotted on the Nürburgring a few days ago, will be the VLT L8?

It's only a vague shot, a picture took when the heavily camouflaged vehicle shot past our photographers on the Ring. The vehicle was protected by two L7's, and accompanied by two other camouflaged prototypes. Judging from the sound the vehicle made, a completely new engine will appear in the L8, and, since the prototype had no problems pulling away from the L7's, we guess it's way more powerful. And since the L7 already has 630 HP in the most potent version, we guess that this vehicle should have at least 800 HP, if not more, since the L8 will probably put more weight on the scales than the L7.

However, inside sources at VLT say they can't deny or confirm anything we have been speculating. The L8 still remains a mystery, although we're uncovering it piece by piece....
