Enzo Ferrari said it perfectly, "race cars are neither beautiful nor ugly; they become beautiful when they win.
 It's going to be a spectacular looking Sebring.

I'm not an Audi fan, mostly because I've become bored with their decade of winning. This R15 though makes up for some of that boredom with interesting design.

P.S. That steering wheel needs to become a cost option on road-going R8s as soon as possible, along with an option to delete all the original gauges.
 Nicer than 908 or ARX-02

"Can anyone make good looking prototypes anymore?"

Just wait for the new Aston Martin LMP! If the illustration or 3D render is anything to go by...

When I first saw this (it was the spy photo on Autosport's website), I thought "why half of the front is missing?". But now I kind of like it. The front is more pleasing to look than Peugeot 908 or Acura ARX-02's pointy, very narrow noses.
 not pretty? who cares

Last time i checked, racing is not about looking pretty. Its all about going fast, they design these cars with the sole emphasis on making the design functional, especially in terms of aerodynamics, this pretty much always leaves them with no room to make it aesthetically pleasing to the few who care about looks. if a race car turns out pretty, then bonus. but thats not what they aim for.

Correct me if i'm wrong, but pretty doesnt win races.
 Prettier than some

My only real styling gripe is the location of the aerials, which look incongruous with the general form of the beast. Otherwise I like it.
Mind you, I used to think Ellen De generes was cute.
 Not pretty.

Can anyone make good looking prototypes anymore? Although Audi is hardly a place took for aesthetic competence.
