Renault R5 Turbo: The Baddest Ugly Car?

It's rare that a car this ugly has us wishing we had the means to win an ebay auction (let alone to lay down the starting $20,000 bid). But we keep finding ourselves going back to this 1984 Renault R5 Turbo. We're smitten with the French hot rod. And here's why.
For those uninitiated with the R5 Turbo mystique, it's not a "Le Car" with funky fender flares and racer wheels. Stock, the rear wheel drive micro came with a mid-shipped turbocharged 4-cylinder that cranked out 160 horses. The car won the Monte Carlo Rally in 1978. This ebay R5 Turbo is set up as a street/track vintage racer with a 260 horse 4-cylinder turbo sitting in the hatch, Bilstein coilovers and a 411 limited slip rear end. Imagine all that in a car that weighs less than 2,000 pounds and handles like a go-cart.
The Renault's looks are starting to grow on you, aren't they?
