That's the spesifications for the W12 Coupè, aka the Nardo.
But the car in the picture is the first W12 concept from 1997.

I love this car. I guess you people know Volkswagen owns Lamborghini and I think Lamborghini influence shines through on this car, right down to the jack-knife doors. Any word on if they are putting this car into production?

Well, the yellow car you see in the picture was introduced in 1997.
Audi, and thus Volkswagen, didn't acquire Lamborghini S.p.A. untill 1998.
And no, they are not building it, Bernd Pischetsrieder pulled the plug last summer.

Wow. I had no idea this car was introduced so long ago. I figured the jack-knife doors, rear engine W-12, and beautiful styling were under Lamborghini influence. Well, I am disappointed to hear they are not releasing this car. It would be a big step for Volkswagen.
