Gosh the R8 is a stunning piece of kit.
It's light, fast, and it handles. It beat that 911 Turbo by 3 seconds on a short track! A towering achievement. And the design makes the Porsche look positively ancient. Dowdy even.
Audi picked up the Chalice of Sports Car Cool and put it on higher shelf. And they rode off into the sunset while the others reached for the stool
I now see the genius of Audi buying Lamborghini. And I don't give a damn how badass that V10 (God help porsche) is, the V8 is The Engine for that chassis.
Cheers
