I was lucky enough to own that alongside the Shelby GT350 for a short while, but ended up selling the GT350 within a year of getting the R8 since I have no need for two sports cars. I need a practical vehicle, so I got a Macan Turbo. If I could've afforded a Lamborghini Huracán I would've gotten that, but I couldn't, so I got the next best thing and I love it. For anyone unaware, since VW owns Audi and Lamborghini, the R8 and Huracán share the same chassis, and a whole bunch more parts. Mine is a base V10 (not a V10+), so it has a different transmission than the Huracán, but the engine is the same.
I'm FINALLY going to be able to take the R8 to the track to see what it can do. That's why I bought it four years ago, and it's what I did numerous times with the GT350, which aside from overheating issues was fantastic in its handling. I hope the R8 doesn't disappoint.
