I noticed this on that Ebay ad where someone is selling a spot and not saying what line # they are. The nose on this car has a larger lip and it has an extra set of "gills" in the front bumper. Was this a prototype nose or something else?

That looks like the Esthi, an aftermarket tuner car with an Audi V8, riding on a lengthened chassis with different body panels.

Here's a short video about the car.

EDIT: Sorry, that'd be a V6, NOT a V8.

Yep, think it's an esthi, it's literally got about twice as many grilles as the standard elise!

So you think the Elise is ugly!?
WTH are you on this board for then? j/k

I know what you meant. I think it looks kind of cool. But definitely like the standard Elise better.

I don't like the second "gill" in the front, but the bigger lip reminds me of the Exige lip and I do think it looks good.
