Nice?  Beg to differ.

Somewhere, a teenager with a Honda Civic is crying in his driveway 
'cause someone stole his bodykit.
No brake upgrades for a car that has 120 more HP?  Huh.
The wood inside has been painted blue.  It's like he saw one of the 
Smurf S4's and said "ooo, that's a CLEVER idea!" (a clever idea so 
clever, Audi hasn't done it since).
The original body color is not blue- it was RED.  Highly contrasting 
colors- you do the math.
Everything on the engine has been polished and there are anodized bits.
There's a pressure regulator of some sort hanging off the wastegate- 
looks like someone who doesn't know the 20vt decided to "tune" it.
The wheels are uneven sizes, and no doubt something was hacked to make 
the 10's fit.
Battery hasn't been relocated, I thought this was required, guess 
not...although one does wonder what was done to make it all fit.
Ah, and it's been slammed to the ground.  Possibly fixable, if the 
suspension wasn't modified to make it align correctly at that ride height.

Looks like a great candidate for the Audi Rescue League.
