No doubt that the R8 is a cool car, but I simply don't think $100+k cars should really be considered in these type of awards.

I've seen two R8's thus far in DC, wow, look good in person, but I'd still take a GT-R over it and save some cash.

Good job guys. It only took 3 to 4 posts to get the GTR and ZR1 comparison going again.

hehe, good luck finding one. My friend had one ordered in CO. He had this thing pre-ordered for about 1 year, number 5 on a local dealers the list. The dealer had two dealerships and had a list that vastly exceeded their ability to obtain the R8. Needless to say, my friend got screwed out of his pre-order and the dealer will not be getting him his R8. He was pissed. They told him he might be able to get one next year as a next year model. He told them to get bent.
I am trying to talk him into a GTR anyway now. He is thinking a GTR might be a better purchase anyway but only time will tell when they get them stateside. |

Hmmm, I'll let him know. I think his beef is with the dealership, not Audi. But, I think he is liking the pre-stats coming out about the GTR, and it has AWD which is something he finds important. Thanks...
BTW, which TX dealership? |
