Pro 6520 Bellingham, WA | Subject: RE: Audi R8 Originally posted by mdg2003 Originally posted by popsracer I gotta ask. What the heck were you driving? There are a few R8's around here that I see occasionally. The convertible's are especially "sexy" looking. I tangled with one on I-5 a couple of months ago. I was getting on the freeway friskily and went by him. He countered with a little surge then I left him in my rearview mirror. I will say as we were side by side the sound of two engines turning 7,000 rpm was just plain awesome. 911 Turbo S with upgraded intercoolers, wastegate actuators, silicone boost hoses, software tuned for about 30% more boost, European spec suspension, and a few other little goodies. Triple black convertible. Way to much fun. |

Regular 5477 LHOTP | Subject: RE: Audi R8 Originally posted by LeegoocrapOne of the perks of being a car salesman (and...knowing other car salesmen) is getting to drive stuff I can't afford.The R8 is sweet. It's basically just a Lambo Gallardo in different clothing, which is to say it's awesome. It's on my top 5 list of "fun" cars that I got to drive that I'll never own.1.) Godzilla (Seriously, the Nissan GTR is more awesome than anything...ever.)2.) Porsche 911 Turbo (As sweet as a sports car can get)3.) Chevy Z06 (LS7) (that thing is nutty from a stop.)4.) The Audi (closest I'll ever come to driving a bull.)5.) Lotus Esprit V8 (a twin turbo v8 go-kart)The Audi is by far the best behaved if I had to drive one "daily" (although the Nissan is surprisingly close) but I'd take any of them if anyone is offering. Oh. My. God. So jealous. You are a lucky, lucky man. I only have experience with Porsches-- a few 911 turbos of different years. I would love to drive the others. What do you sell? |

Extreme Veteran 787 The Woodlands/Magnolia, TX. | Subject: RE: Audi R8 i was at a horse show a few months back and a guy had to park his new R8 on the side of a two lane country road...half on and half off! the pitch up the gravel drive way was too steep for him to pull onto the show grounds so he just left it on the side of the road. oh-yeah, it was at the top of a hill on a blind curve. i wasn't sure whether to be jealous or appauled. there's a huge billboard on the mail freeway in the city where i live that says something like this...."someone in your area just bought an R8...slower traffic please keep right". i thought that was kind of funny. and, it's advertising gold becuase my area is very much a keep-up-with-the-jones' type of town. |

Regular 5477 LHOTP | Subject: RE: Audi R8 Originally posted by Leegoocrap Some of my favorite cars had previous owners. Those sound like fun toys. And you've got bikes, so there's that..

Triple black convertible. Way to much fun. I'll work on a pic. Here is a video comparing the two by my favorite car guys. At about 7:00 illustrates why my wife will no longer ride as a passenger with me. http://www.streetfire.net/video/porsche-911-turbo-vs-audi-r8-v10-spyder_2061626.htm |
