My first reaction was that I almost puked... Looks like a ruined R8. Stance is awkward, grille is ugly, the front lights are terrible and looking at those rims will probably make you blind. The fact that it's a EV (or at least hybrid) makes it even less desirable in my eyes. Only the interior and the rear are nice.

Now after seeing this I have to go the the R8 picture gallery and take a long look at the beautiful V8/V10 models to recover from this shock...

Wow, what a difference between this and press picks, a 1000 times better. This actually looks good.

Seriously what is it with press pics, they are supposed to make the cars look better, not worse. As of late they seem to be doing the exact opposite of what they are supposed to...

I agree, those were really horrendous...

Other than that, it looks rather heavy, but nice.
