Doesn't look too bad ... and the time and effort that went into it - wow.

But $50,000 ... hmmm

Looks good, but wait till a "real" R8 pulls up next to you at the lights. Then you're done

Yea - I actually saw a video of Audi R8 V10 vs Audi TTRS the other day.

Around twists, they were fairly close and the V10 couldn't shake the TTRS ... but when it came to straight line speed, it pulled cars ahead of the TTRS! And that's a sub 5 second car itself!

I love the TTRS though. Wish I could afford one

From the side it looks nothing like a R8...

That's like wearing an imitation Rolex.

I just wouldn't feel right driving that, especially at that price. It would be like undressing for a woman, only to reveal a prosthetic penis.

Epic comparison.

Repli-what? For that price? For that price I want a diamond-encrusted steering wheel.

If she's a blond she might not even notice! As long as it's flashy/shiny you stand a good chance.
