2004 Jaguar BlackJag, a one-off supercar concept created by the Spanish design house Fuore Design. While it bears the Jaguar badge, it was developed independently of the British manufacturer.

Introduced at the 2004 Geneva Motor Show, the BlackJag was a design study intended as a successor to Fuore's previous Jaguar-based concept, the XF10.
It featured a mid-mounted 7.0-liter V10 engine producing approximately 640 horsepower.
At its launch, it was claimed to reach 100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.8 seconds with a top speed of over 330 km/h (210 mph).
The vehicle measures roughly 4.55 meters long and weighs 1,350 kg. Its sleek, black body was built in Turin, Italy, by Modarte.
Only one model was ever produced. In 2014, it was reportedly listed for sale by a private owner for approximately €2.8 million ($3.8 million).

Take a close look at the wheelbase compared to the cabin, the roofline, and the shape of the glass. It's obviously a 1st gen Audi R8 underneath.

2004 though, you couldn't buy an Audi R8 until 2006 because there wasn't any production versions.

I agree, also the fuel filler cap behind the B-Pillar is identical to the R8.

Yeech. It’s like someone badge-engineered an Alfa 4C into a Pontiac.

This is what the next Corvette update should look like.
