I want an R8 real bad though. I just wish testicles had monetary value. I'd gladly donate one for the prospect of ownership.

Me too, the R8 is p8rn and much nicer than a 911.

Actually the A5 is much 'prettier' in the flesh.

Audi have done a great job with the interior, but I cannot believe that they have created a 'typical' Audi and not used what they learnt with the RS4.

Cannot see why anyone would pay the premium for either the A5 3.0TDI or the S5 over the 335d Coupe and 335i Coupe.

The pic above makes it look like the recent rehashes of American "classics" like the charger. Hint of Chrysler 300 etc.

The S5 looks good in dark colours and I like the led sidelights they pinched off aston.

I saw one in the window of Macclesfield Audi and thought it looked quite smart. Admittedly, it was only a fleeting glimpse as I drove past, so I could have misjudged it

R8 or nearly new DB9?

I think the answer is quite clear there. R8 is nice but having seen it in the flesh can't say I'm all that excited by it versus a DB9. Maybe that's just me though.
