Audi R8 on the cheap

This is pretty cool, a R8 replica based on a 01 Mercury Cougar and it actually looks good!

.....from some angles.
I still wouldn't be embarrased in it and its kinda neat, but if he really wanted to pull something off, he should have ommited the badges to keep people guessing.

The son of a friend got tagged doing "XXX" on the highway in a real one that was in for service i bet this thing couldn't keep up

When I saw the post title I thought "no way!" but it looks pretty cool. Not bad for a replica.
