Mako Report post Posted June 5, 2008 Everyone hates it, but I'd take it over an R8 by a MILE. Don't give a shit about the ugly wheels, they'd be changed within 24 hours. Will never understand why people gripe about OEM wheels that wind up on ebay 95% of the time. Rest of the design just needs some light toning down and it would be perfect.
