The R8 is simply sex-on-wheels, Audi did a great job with its design.

I agree. I think that the R8 is a beautiful design. Audi has done what BMW still refuses to do -- build a supercar.

IMHO the R8 is by no means a supercar just as a BMW M3 is not a supercar.
This is one sweet car IMHO.

To me, the R8 with the Gallardo-sourced V10 qualifies as one. But that's just one member's opinion.
