MSRP is a great deal on any new R8. There are plenty of buyers out there who'd love to pay MSRP. I'd be super surprised if the dealer took less.

This car is now being offered at $143,900

This is a private party sale of a customer's car, so you will save a ton on taxes!

Saw one in Fremont the other day driving to work. It sure looks mean driving on the road

Friends who work at Oracle tell me that founder Larry Ellison can often be seen driving his black R8 when he's in town. Keep an eye out for it on 101 around Ralston/Marine World Parkway.

Haven't looked. Are those for brand new? What's the MSRP?

Market has gotten worse on the R8s in the past couple of months. I hear now that you can get them for below MSRP if you look around.
