The Audi R8 is probably one of the best sportscar on the market today. Virat Kohli sure seems to agree.
Audi also spends a bomb on marketing it. We’re guessing it entails loads of camera equipment, crew of a hundred and a budget of a million Euros. And then this happened. Audi asked photographer Felix Hernandez to create a photo set of the car. He did it alright. He shot the car that costs about Rs 2.5 crores, using a scale model that costs Rs 2,500. See the results for yourself.

If you think Hernandez conned Audi, he didn’t. He specialises in making mock ups and shooting model cars like they were real.
