Seen one of these today, almost had me fooled.
Probably the same one http://www.a5oc.com/forums/a5-general-q/16355-a5-s-line-r8.html

I saw a TT round our way done similar, they should've just bought an MR2, at least the 355 kits can look convincing

The best thing is it probably cost nearly as much as a cheap R8

I don't think its trying to be an R8 at all. Its just an R8 inspired design.
There's a Kahn S5 going around Aberdeen. It looks very similar.

I don't think it's directly trying to be an R8 replica, more taking styling ideas from it.
Either way it's fucking rank, expect to see a pro footballer in one very soon.
