Those didn't look like they were trying this hard to say "I'm a beast!"

I thought the 4 centered tips on a corvette were dumb, they sure are dumber here. I understand the red thing going on because it's a Type-R but it's a bit much.

Who am I to talk? I drive the "ugly" "cute" and "cool" 1 series depending on who I'm talking to. I'm sure the same can be said about this Type-R. Since I'm not one for mutual wound licking, I'll stand by "ugly" at this point.
Not that I'm defending it but it is just a rendering by a company that thinks that what it "should" look like, I agree it's too much for a production car but toning it down a bit like on the sides and back would make it very desirable. The front is pretty damn good and I'd say really close to production spec. The back needs a little less activity I think.
