"The winner of this head to head, and really maybe any head to head, is the _____________. It's just such a great car!"
Great quote from the video.

I dont know why they compared the S-Tronic to the 7-sp manual then took up all that time in the video complaining about the 7sp manual arrangement!!!

it would have been to compare PDK with S-Tronic and say why one was better than the other... oh well
looked good in red ... amazing that its 500lbs lighter than the R8!

I owned one of the first V10 R8 Spyders and it was anything but boring.

Can't believe they couldn't come up with a C4S cab pdk for a real head-to-head!
Wanted that R8 since 2007 - when I finally had $100k to spend on a car, Porsche got my money because the Audi was too expensive and the 991 really is very good.

Man...that R8, especially with a STASIS package, is really spectacular to drive...
