Weird. last week I saw 3 when I went to the grocery store. Literally within 300 meters, 3 different R8s. Guess I'm just lucky. They look much better in real life than in pics.

If my dad had one I sure as hell would.

Instead, I have the nicest car in the family by far. My mom DDs an E36 vert, my dad an older Accord wagon, and they also have an Expedition and E32... So I guess I'll stick to impressing the ladies in my car, haha.

That's a hell of a damn driveway full though. The R8 is beautiful. I can't wait to see it with the CF blades. It's going to be sick.

I love the styling of the Audi S's too. I think my next car may be an S5 if it's not a BMW.
