          They're not white LED's, they're "fairy lights," although I personally think they look bad ass on the R8 and S5.

                    They're both yellow supercars? They look nothing alike.

                      I gotta agree with Josh. I've noticed that, except for the real high quality ones like Ferrari and Lamborghini, all supercars have the same shape and look pretty much the same nowadays and I'm getting really bored with them.

                        My thoughts exactly, thats why I choose not to buy a boring "supercar". I'll stick with my E30. Yeah right...who am I kidding, a RS8 would look sick in my driveway.

                          Of course they all look alike. Some call it aerodynamic efficiency.

                            Thank you. Although they do look similar, some people don't understand the concept of super cars actually being engineered to go fast. You could post a picture of a lambo or pretty much anything else in there and it would have the same striking similarities.

                            What do you want, a Scion Xa shaped Saleen?
