I like it. It looks like a spaceship. Not sure about the windscreen though.

Yeah - I like the look of it too very futuristic, I rather like the wraparound screen as well.  8)

This looks really good. The screen design is excellent.

Ehm, where are the doors ? How do they do a driver change ? No air out takes on the front wheels ? ??? Nice pictures, though.

Oh dear, and they present the RS Spyder in Europe as if it was something new. I'm sorry, but Porsche has done better in the past... very poor marketing.  ::)

Guess they assume it'll be going so fast it doesn't need things like....mirrors, brake ducts, doors.
Remember when the Peugeot 905 was revealed? Remember what it actually ended up looking like on the track?
Me thinks more of the same.  I doubt the actual car bares much resemblance to this.  Hope so, personally I think it looks like a red & white turd.

No resemblance to a coupe at all. It looks exactly as it is an open prototype with a roof slapped on it. More like a childs fantasy

Ah Fax, I missed the mirrors. Very well observed (SP :police:).

Liked the closed top radical SR10


Looks very nice, as sportscars should look. And something new. Well done. Now lets see ifs its more than a one off.

A thumbs up from me.  Personally I prefer the closed coupe style of protoypes to the open cars.  So the LMP1 rule change gets my official approval  ;)

I like the look of it.

Hope it hasn't changed too much by the time it gets to the grid.

I agree with Steve, now lets see if it gives Audi a run for its money.
