I think this car is really sexy.

GREAT car. And I like it more without the CF panel like that silver one there.

This is a great looking car. I kind of like it with a contrasting side panel; makes the car look less long. Also, the first car I've seen without the optional 19's. And, for 100 grand, this car doesn't have HIDs standard?

Okay, I'm nitpicking. This car looks fantastic.

It looks painted.

If you look closely at the color, it doesn't match the car perfectly. Almost, but not perfectly...

EDIT: Nevermind. Sidepanel is optional..

Audi R8 Microsite -- Check "Personalization."

It's Ice Silver body color with Oxygen Silver sideblade...
