Have you guys seen the new Evo issue? They state that the king (911) is dead and that the R8 is ready to take the throne!

Great article. On their track, the R8 had faster lap times than the 997 GT3!

Porsche 911 C4S is #1 and Audi R8 #2 but it sure looks better especially the interior. I'm going to ask my dealer to bump me up on the waiting list for the R8.

The R8 is pretty sweet indeed, and I'm looking forward to seeing one in the flesh.

the R8 is a beauty in person. i saw one on the street down here a month ago. i think it had michigan/manufacturer blue plates on it - but i was busy looking and listening to the thing to be sure.

i was sitting at a light and heard a low rumble start to pull past me on my right - and in the mirror i saw something i'd never seen before. it cruised past, and made the right on red. beautiful machine and sounded incredible.

it's amazing how soon the new cars pop up on the street down here.
