Ayse: in regard to the visual aesthetics of the Audi R8 we will have to agree to disagree. I find the car to be stunning. Seeing it in person and watching it move on the track is the true testament. Are you sure that the R8's record has not soured your view of it?
With that said, I think the C65 is a viable choice and would love to see it grace the ALMS schedule.
