On the short list of cars I'd like to own is the Audi R8. Great looks, spectacular performance and brilliant engineering make it one of the world's most desirable cars. Unfortunately, a quick glance at my checking account balance tells me that I won't be getting one anytime soon.
Apparently this guy came to the same conclusion, but he did something about it. He built an R8 replica based on a Mercury Cougar!
A real R8 tops $100,000.00. This guy built his for around $50,000.00
OK, I don't like replica cars and this one hasn't changed that opinion. For $50,000.00 what does this guy have? A Mercury Cougar that looks similar to an Audi R8.
I have to give the guy credit for all the time, money and effort he went through.
To each his own, I guess.
