I have dealt with them a few times and they were pretty good.

The sales guy was very nice and it's a nice dealership. I was pleasantly surprised. But there is no chance in hell they are going to get over MSRP on the car with that many for sale on Auto Trader alone at MSRP.

Check this out, the amount Audi is charging for the V10 is actually even less than I had calculated earlier. It's only $11.5K.

Ah, well basically it's a spreadsheet that shows that if you were to spec an R8 V8 with the options that are standard on the V10 (which are basically all the options you would want, except for maybe the alcantara headliner), the V10 would only cost $11.5K more than V8.

So the R-Tronic is still the single clutch box from the regular R8 right? Too bad they couldn't get the double clutch in there.

Correctamundo. I read a post somewhere that the box was somehow faster in the 2010 model and the dealer told me that as well. But I don't have any real information on it.

Don't you think it would be nice to have a DSG setup in there?
