decided to buy R8 ???
Good day,
So, after I have sold my SL 55 AMG 2008, I decided to buy R8. Any comments about the car? Already found White exterior with carbon side blades, and black full leather, will buy it new from Germany on monday. Can any one tell me something about R8, I just personaly LOVE the look of it!!!
ANY + and -?
What about quality of the car, I mean build quality!
Any good info will be very important!
Thanks to all!
P.S please post some R8s of yours!!!

you may want to go to r8talk.com. I've got one with a very similar spec coming (white + CF blade, black leather/alcantara deviated stitching).
Is yours a stick or R-tronics?
(You will here all the P-car owners knocking it here and all the r8 owners supporting it over there.)
Things that I've heard.
+ looks amazing/draw lots of attention, OK as a daily drive, very well balanced
- not as powerful as one may hope (most still want the V10), R-tronics seems to have a few minor problems need fine-tuning, with V10/V12 TDI/etc. coming so the current model may take a knock on the resale value (particularly if you will have to wait for another 6 months).

I love it in white. Best color combo, but I think in 2 years you see them like Porsche 911`s. But at the moment it is a real exotic. And you have had your SL for a year or what? Here is one what stands at our golf course!

Mine will be with R-tronic.
No one know when W12 tdi will come out, AUDI already telling for 2 years that Q7 W12 TDI will be out in a month!! + diesel in My country is very bad!!!
about power... 4.6 to 100kmh is the same as my SL 55 AMG 2008, but with rear wheels its hard to do!!! AUDI is AWD...

Yeah I had my SL for 7 months! I ordered it, have wait it for 6 months to be delivered with every options including exclusive degigno leather etc. But now I see that facelift came out, and I had a chance to pass my car to one of my familly members.... now again I have free money to buy a super car!

Then your car will be very similar to mine! Mine will be R-tronics too (wife can't drive manual).
The W12, V12 Diesel are not ones that I worry about. I am most worry about the V10, cuz that is tempting even for me, just that I can't see myself going through 2 audi R8 in the same generation. Kinda like selling a SL 55 getting a SL 63.
I will post some pics when I get my car.
On the other board there is a guy with very similar spec, his car looks stunning!

Very beautiful! Any more pics of the black one? I've yet to see any really good pics of black, and that's my favorite colour for a car. Just thought I might also add another "plus". While the V8 version may not be as fast as the V10 that is on it's way, I would imagine it will be cheaper/easier to service and daily drive without issue. Then again, servicing price may not even be an issue for you, and is likely not if you can afford this car with the markups.

price tag is not that important, time is. Dont want to wait until v10 will be out.
