Owner rebadges Audi R8 with a BMW roundel

[SSense]

We’ve been looking at these photos for a few hours now and we really cannot tell if they are simply a photoshop or the “real deal”. If this Audi R8 re-badged as BMW is indeed real, then we have to wonder what went through the head of this owner.

The Audi R8 is a beautiful supersport car, without a doubt and unquestionable even by BMW fans, but to go to this extreme automatically raises some questions.

Could this owner be such a huge BMW fan? But then why would he buy a $120,000 Audi? Is he trying to make a point that BMW is not…yet…offering a supersports vehicle? Or maybe the most logical explanation: craving for some attention, of course, on the internet.
