The design of the Audi R8 is held in such high esteem that it has acted as inspiration for quite a few design projects. The latest is this catamaran which has been cleverly styled by Swedish company Vizualtech.
The project is for a Dubai race boat company, it is 8.8 meters (29 feet) long and features a cool set of gullwing doors. Power will come from either a modified biodiesel V10 engine or from two smaller 320hp V8 engines. Estimated top speed stands at an impressive 110mph.
Production... errrr - unlikely.

... and yes, the looks like an R8 joke is tired.
that's quite cool, but I hope it won't inspire Audi while making the R8 facelift....
AWESOME ... I can't think of a more appropriate word for how that thing looks
