What's the deal with the R8

[MrGreenJeans]

So this car has been finished for two years and it's been reviewed time and again by car mags, but I have to ask...Where is this car? Is it ever coming out?

there was one on a drive I did last weekend, it had New York plates... I have also seen a sliver one a number of times in Malibu and in the canyons. And there are a couple for sale but I haven't seen any publically advertised...

One with paper plates (I think it was BH Porsche/Audi) on Fairfax last weekend (Sat.)..... I guess they must be out (but only the V8 version is what I seem to recall reading).

I saw a white one at the Cars And Coffee event in December, it was leaving as I got there. Here's a pic of the one at the L.A. Autoshow in 2007.

I hope you saw the Super Bowl commercial:
Audi R8 Super Bowl Commerical. (http://youtube.com/watch?v=0_sshN-URJY)
I didn't get it at first because I wasn't actually looking at the tv... But after the second time I saw the ad, it was hilarious!

HMMMMM.....could be fun...

Why don't you wait for the Diesel one? That thing is insanely fast, has tons of power, and gets 25 mpg?
