OK I've never driven a McClaren or Buggati or the million dollar Porsche.

But the R8 is better than a 458 italia, or any Ferrari by miles.

Manual gearbox. All wheel drive. Livable as a daily driver. I could have this car as my only vehicle no problem.

Best car I've ever driven.

You guys like it?

I've never driven, but I like it. Only the V10 version, why would anyone buy the V8?

It's better. I mean it. Google it. Lots of people prefer the v8 w/ manual gearbox to the v10.

Helluva value proposition too.

I prefer the 911 turbo. Much more bang for the buck.

I like the 997 gt3 a lot.

OK I love it.

But newer 911's do absolutely nothing to me. In fact it's the only sports car over 100k that bores me.

Not for me.

How about a 997 gt2? Or 997 gt2rs?

Both are going up in value

I love hearing them roar in the Wilshire Blvd. urban canyon in Westwood, L.A. when I'm up there for a visit- (I don't know why but it just seems like there are a ton of them there) sick sounding engine! It's a Lamborghini based engine right?
