I agree, the R8 can seriously stop traffic.

Greeney · 09-28-2007, 01:27 PM

It has some WIDE ass rear tires too...

There is no silver CF option for the R8.
Its oxygen silver. i think.

I too saw one a few weeks back here in the D.C. area. It was crossing the intersection while I was stopped at the light and totally caught me off guard. I didn't think they were available until at least November

Definately an eye catcher.

I saw a black R8 here in Chinatown. I was crossing the street and had to take a double glance. The R8 caught me off guard.

For the price, it's an amazing looking ride!

I have yet to see one in person.

From the pictures, it looks amazing.

The LEDs are what make it that much better looking in RL imo.

LEDs are like Angel-eyes for BMW. I think LEDs are better though...

I saw one at Desert Audi here in Las Vegas. Was Black with dark grey blades. The dealer was asking 50k over for it. I just laughed. Its a nice car but more than anything its a work of art and not a supercar. At the end of the day its pretty much a re-skinned gallardo with a v8 in place of a v10.
