I've seen one on the road already. It's definitely a beauty.
But I'd rather save some money, and buy this, and let the Audi driver have a good look at my taillights.

I'd have to see it in person to decide, but I think I would buy a Lotus Exige S before one of those. Or I'd go for a Porsche 911 GT3, despite:
| http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audi_R8#Performance |
Many publications were hailing it as the first car to truly be able to beat Porsche - considered by many to be one of the best supercars ever made and the leader in its class. Initial comparison tests have proven quite positive in this respect; Evo Magazine in its comparison test between the R8, 911 Carrera 4S, Aston Martin V8 Vantage and BMW M6 have claimed that the Audi is a better supercar saying that "Audi humbles Porsche. A new dawn starts today." Other publications have also made similar reviews of the Audi beating the Porsche in comparison tests.
|
The Exige S is much cheaper, with similar 0-60 mph, and it's more "green". The top speed difference between the two doesn't make a difference to me, since the Exige's 148 mph is fine. When would I ever fucking get up to 187?
As for my pro-argument for the R8-priced 911: class and sex appeal. I'd love to fuck it. The R8 on the other hand is an absolute slut, and I don't like sluts.

One of my long-term goals in life is to own my own supercar and I am going to do it. I am going for a Lamborghini though.

I hope you don't plan on paying for insurance.

I'd love to have the up coming ZR1 blue devil from Chevy, but I will settle for a delorean and stuff something big in the back.
I will be too tall to drive these tiny supercars you guys are talking about.
@sniper: I heard about that car in 2006 NFS: Carbon.

The R8 looks awesome, yet it's not as fast as the price may suggest. It only has 420 HP... It costs 150 Gs. You can get 500+ HP with a Shelby GT for almost a third of that.

The handling sucks on the GT500, according to Richard Hammond. Also, the horsepower isn't quite at 500: 447.
Check out the handling reviews on the Lotus Exige S.
