My Ride: 09 M5 (E60) Interlagos blue, Silverstone interior, with cold weather package. Adaptive Xenon headlamps and adaptive brake lights, hud, comfort access. Comfort seats, basically fully loaded.
I am planing on gettin an Audi R8.. (no i am not giving away my M5, i love it to death)...Should i go for the 2010 w/ the V10 motor or the older one w/ V8?.. 
Since this would be my first audi i need to know whether this car is even worth it? Any other options under 150K? and yes i plan to Buy it, i dun like leasing. And what color option should i go for?

If you have the finances... I'd probably go with the V10. From everything that I read and heard, the V8 just felt wayyy to underpowered for being a " super-car ".

Heck, between Audi R8, GTR, or Porsches, I wouldn't even look at the GTR and Porches.
A big big piece of appeal of the R8 is style, and goddamn that car is simply sexy.
I am pretty sure Shezmon has his mind made about it already, but here's another two thumbs up for getting the R8

Hate the R8, how can you have fun with an AWD pig? I'm all about driving pleasure and the 997.2 GT3 RS is currently the best car for sale, this side of 150k
