Inmo the GT looks awesome...had the R8GT for a bit in Miami last weekend, it kicks major arse and got more looks then any porsche I have ever owned, not to mention it was amazingly comfortable.

The problem is the price tag though, at 200k i'm f-car all the way.

That's unfair comparison 200k doesn't buy new Ferrri

I honestly think these cars look great. They aren't super exciting (original r8 is all I've driven) but they are a great 200k very in my book

While my love forPorsche is deep I think this is a good car.
Stoppie gotta love your hatred for Lamebos but I think these have a lot of different qualities over those POS gallardo shit boxes. Mainly class. Style and those cool lights

I have only owned 1 Audi but i am more than impressed with the almost 20k miles I already have on mine.

DJ I want your job. Jealous I am!

I agree with this 100%. Audi in general still has that great sense of class to its name, whereas Lamborghini, and Porsche, especially, lost it for me a long time ago. Although they're both amazing companies if i was, for whatever reason, going for class with a fast and attractive car, i would take the R8 over a Murci or GT3 any day.

I wasn't using them as examples in terms of performance numbers or anything beyond their names, really. I was referencing more to your word whore'd, and thought that it was what you meant. For me, what i said is true, though. You are right, they cannot be compared to each other and i wasn't. The R8, for me, like i said, still has that sense of class that i'm sure Audi intended for it to have. I'm simply saying that Lamborghini and Porsche, for me, as a person, have lost it (that sense of class). So no point for an argument about money.
