The R8 I drove cost ? 139k
It's a very good car, but the price is too high for 420 HP and 2 seats .

MMA fighter, recently won the UFC title by knocking out Chuck Liddell. Rampage is a beast in the cage.

Definitely not like fake wrestling. Its basically legal street fighting, kills boxing.

Mixed martial arts (MMA)

The three best MMA leagues are Pride Fighting, UFC, and K1.

Here is a little MMA action:

Rampage Jackson in action, one of the hardest slams you will see (this is how you defend an armbar):

Red is sad : it's not a Ferrari . An Audi should be black or dark grey .

That red looks hot IMO.

Saw a white R8 with black spoked wheels over the weekend in front of a restaurant. Real head turner. Audi's making some awesome cars lately.
