Audi R8 or Ferrari 360
Guys and Gals,
Just wanted your opinion. Price being the same for a new R8 versus a used 10 - 15K miles Ferrari 360, what would you rather buy?
Michael.

360 by a landslide, not even close. In fact I had a conversation about the r8 recently where I guessed that the only people buying them must be current or former ferrari owners, cause who else would buy it over a lightly used 360

I briefly owned a 360 and now have an R8 and..No contest the R8,it is a better car in every respect.The 360 does sound good though ,but the audi has far better usability,much quicker over the road ,can be used daily,much more comfortable and handling is far better.Sounds great and you get an amazing reaction in the R8.

If it's name and status you're looking for, then a Ferrari may suit you.
However, the R8 is a far superior machine. I SAID IT. The build quality is in another league, it's got better reliability, Audi Space Frame, Quattro, magnetic ride, a nasty V8, and new design concepts(LED's,sideblades, etc) that will grab tons of attention.
This car has proven itself over and over in may tests, to be one of the BEST handling cars in its class. If you gave me both sets of keys, I would easily snag the R8.
However, it's all about preference. In the end you will have to drive both and decide for yourself.-T

No sir. I'm on the after-sales side of things with Audi. If you need some sales info I'd be glad to see what I can dig up for you though! -T

R8 simply because its a better car that you don't have to "baby" around all the time.
It's also a current model and if I ever got a 360 I would've wished I got the CS or the F430..... To some degree I can agree that a Ferrari is a Ferrari but in this case, the R8 is the winner in my eyes.
