After all the waiting I finally have my 09 R8. It exceeds all my expectations. It sounds right, handles fabulous and turns heads everywhere it goes. My only initial misgiving was the R-Tronic which had be given mixed reviews. Having driven boththe 6 speed and now my R-Tronic I can say that it comes down to personal preference. I actually enjoy processing the R-Tronic and find it very capable of satisfying me. No regrets here from this owner. Love the roomy interior, fantastic seats, and look and finish of the carbon fibre trim inside and out ( Blades too! ) Have friends with Italian exotics and would not trade this for any of them. This car is really special and my favorite of all!

The car is incredible. It is so comfortable and practical (for what it is) that it could easily be a daily driver. Everywhere it goes it gets the looks and gawks of admirers while also the challneges and revs of the wannabes. Love the car...can't think of another under 400k I'd rather have.

The Best Of The Best

Audi has really outdone themselves.! My wife and I are Audi lovers having first experienced the Q7. I must say it has more dependability than my BMW 645i. This car for it's first stab at luxury and performance has done admirably well. It's a joy to drive at all speeds.I drove both transmissions and chose the R-Tronic. It is touchy at slow speeds but you have a shifter plus paddles plus a sport position. All make it versatile and worth a one year wait. I find it's virtually impossible to pull into a gas station for a quick fillup without engaging in a long discussion of it's merits. Gotta love it !!!

What a great car!

The Audi R8 is the best car I have ever owned. Its styling turns heads at every intersection. Its performance puts it in the Supercar category. Audi treats its R8 customers like royalty. It is a car that has luxurious interior. The fit and finish is impeccable. It is a wonderful daily driver and it can go from the street to the track with no changes needed. The R-Tronic transmission in auto mode is terrible. The R-Tronic transmission in manual mode using the paddle shifters is the best transmission I have ever driven. As a daily driver it gets ~19 mpg. On the track...it does not matter. Nothing passed it on my one track day. This is a car to own.

R8 V10

Porsche 911 turbo's are truly amazing and so are Ferrari F430's. Actually I was looking to buy one of those. Instead I ended up getting my R8 and i have no regrets whatsoever. Once i layed eyes on her on that showroom floor i was mesmerized. The car is spectacular. No surprise that is, since eventhough Audi is considered the underdog, strangely so, being that Audi is the largest car manufacturer in the world with vast experience and success in rally, touring car championships (DTM) and last but not least LeMans.!! And thats exactly what the R8 is. A championship winning LeMans derived car. Enough said. As for the lack of space, if you wanted more, you wouldn't be buying a Supercar, just like if you wanted a Supercar you wouldn't be buying a minivan. There is no such thing as a perfect car that does everything and is for everything, but if you want to live the dream without having to sell your kidney, and if you want a smile on your face every time you start that engine, then go out and buy one
