Post 2010 Audi R8 V10 rakes in more dough than Ferrari California at auction

Remember the first unit of the 2010 Audi R8 V10 and the Ferrari California that were being auctioned at the Boca Raton Concours d’ Elegance in Florida? Wonder how much each unit went for? Host, Howie Mandell helped auction of the first unit of the 2010 Audi R8 5.2 V10 FSI for a total of $500,000. That is well above the car’s sticker price of $180,000 (we’re not sure if that is official price set by Audi for the US-spec model). The Ferrari California, on the other hand, didn’t bring in much selling for total of $350,000, which is $125,000 over its $225,000 sticker price. Together both cars helped raise more than $1 million for the Boys and Girls Clubs of Broward County.

Damn! That's a lot of money over sticker! Then again, it definitely shows you what the public thinks of the R8's looks compared to the California...

Not very surprising seeing as one of them looks like shit and the other one is seriously pretty.

To prove my point:
