When I saw the Le Mans concept, I thought they'd never make the production car look as good as that. I was very wrong. Somehow Audi have managed to improve on the looks of the concept, which I never thought possible. Truly stunning car

Great work Vaigra, for me it's a shma they couldn't make the interior like the concept, still, a great looking car!

I must have some kind of medical condition - can't really understand what are you guys raving about?
Looks of this car are sooooo overdesigned - there is no beauty, no elegance, no purity...
However, from technical point of view: R8 specs look very promising indeed

I like it though. Futuristic design and great styling-cues paired with striking-lines. I'm sure companies have contemplated designs such as these, but simplified them to a more conservative, universal look. The R8 definitely has the love it or hate it style.

The rest is alright, but that shifter is really ugly. What happened to a proper manual?

And I love Audis... I think this is a sorry state of affairs.

No, that's the interior of a conservatively styled German saloon, after the designers have spent too much time drinking in "trendy" vodka bars.
A Proper Sports Car interior would look more like This
The exterior styling is a masterpiece, potentially as influential as the original TT (which wasn't actually any good).
It is refined, modern and technical, without being either too overbearing or too boring.
It makes something like the new BMW 3-series Coupe look like it was done by school children, blind school children, with no interest in cars.

Thanks for all the fish

The slab of carbon on the sides is really annoying.
It looks like the car has half crawled out of a shell in the side view.
