This is the GT3 R8, the racing version of Audi's mid-engined supercar set to compete in the FIA GT3 championship next year. It won't just look good, either. Audi is promising '500bhp-plus' from the R8's 4.2-litre V8, channelled through a six-speed sequential gearbox to - now here's the really fun bit - the rear wheels only. GT3 regulations prohibit the use of four-wheel drive. Audi will deliver the first racing R8's to customers next autumn. Just imagine it battling it out with Gallardos, F430s and DBRS9s across the race tracks of Europe.
