Default Audi R8

Anyone catch the commercial during the superbowl? I'm in love. V8, 420bhp, 317 lb-ft torque. Top Speed 187. And for only $109,000. This is a steal! Would have expected more bang for the buck though. They're coming out with a V10 model this year.

I have a fine idea. Its a win win for everyone.

I volunteer you to go purchase one. And when you've kicked it around the block a couple times you come back here and let us know and then rent it out to us by the hour so we can enjoy all the fun too. This way you make money to cover the car payments and insurance and we get to enjoy the ride with ya. What do you say, deal?






Well I tried everyone. I did see that commercial and it sure had a sweet sound to it.

Awesome idea! I'm thinking $250/30mins. And a contract binding your first born to me should anything happen to the vehicle. They make a great profit on the black market, which should supplement any possible repairs.

Already walked one in the GP.

I've seen about 8-10 of them since they came out. Seems like it's going to be almost as common as a 911 GT3 and 911 Turbo's.

It's really nice though. Definetly a nice departure from other European cars in the same price range.
