It is very nice, but most beautiful is a stretch lol, although taste is subjective! I think the 360 challenge stradale is the SEXIEST car ever!

UNREAL CAR!

i really like the look of it - very futuristic and edgy

Can anyone confirm the rumor that they are making a V8 and V10 model? The V10 being around 100k and the V8 being less...like 80-85ish?

Just curious...Still not better than the new GTR in my book!

They will be making the v10 version. It will deffinitly be more than 100k, probably looking at 130k something along those lines. The v8 is looking to be somwhere in the low 100's. This is all speculation.

As far as looks go, sorry, the new GTR can't hold a candle to the R8. Performance will be another story.

hmm... time to re-think the deposit. 130k for the v8 is way too much. That isn't competition for the 997 turbo. And for another 20k you can get a Gallardo with 500hp. This is a real let down

Yea, looks it might be tad cooler looking...but the GTR should be pretty tough to beat in the performance category. Also, from what ive seen/heard over the years, the GTR will be WAY more aftermarket friendly than that Audi.

Besides, 100k+ for a car just isnt in my cards for another 5-7 years.
