Default Introducing the all new Audi R-Aint!
For all those who could not afford the R8, here is your chance. Almost identical, took me a while to tell the difference.

Thank god a real one drove past just after! lol

The conversion is by a company called Niche and i'm sure they were doing this conversion before the R8 was even out.

Their kits look quite good to be fair but that car above just doesn't work in Silver, would have been much better in White

Niche TT

Their concept pic does indeed look rather nice I have to say, but this one in particular really does not carry it off.

Before the R8 was out? I'm assuming the concept had been unveiled by that time though?

Do you think they could turn a VW Beetle to look like a Porsche 911?

There's one lives near us: pretending to be a GT3. Trout would love it!

If the R8 wasnt introduced it may well be heralded as a good design but the fact that it is trying to be something else and failing makes it look daft and desperate.

At least one German company has managed to do that!

They should have redesigned the bonnet as well IMO.

Any chance you could go back with a marker and put an A between the G and the S?

No need to apologise, it's only your worthless opinion!

I can't say that it is in any way an attractive looking car.
