    I realize beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, but DAMN, that is butt fvcking ugly!!!

    It looks like the original R8 went 12 rounds with the world's largest ugly stick!!!

    Wow, well, on the flip side, I sure hope injecting it with all that ugliness makes it win Le Mans!

    LOL

    It looks like the devil himself played with sketches of the original R8.

    I love it how menacing and insane that thing looks. Imagine seeing that in your rear view mirror...

    I also think it's ugly. But You know, form follows function, as always in Le Mans. I'm curious about it's engine specs, 3.7 TDI as far as i know, but that's all. I wonder if it has more than 400 hp, which is still 200 less than last year...
    5 Audis so far...currently:
    2007 Audi A4 B7 2.0 TDI Multitronic

    it has been said that it's got almost the same power since the turbo boost has been increased as per regs. on the other hand, the torque figure should be lower...

    If that thing turned up in my rearview mirror when it's about to go dark, I'd just move aside.... Damn that's one angry car.

    Anybody got more pics?

    Damn, does anyone know where I can watch this in the USA? Speed Channel is too damn busy airing NASCAR wives go shopping and shit.

    Not even espn3.com has it! Anyone?
