Despite Audi hype, it’s mostly a rebadged Lamborghini Gallardo for tens of thousands of dollars less, and better looking to boot!

I looked up BOTH on the internet.
To me, they are both beautiful, small, incredibly fast and incredibly USELESS cars. Where the HELL could I drive either car the way they deserve to be driven? And why would I be such an idiot at to drive to that fast? Those speeds are for formula one drivers, not for an old lady trying to deal with urban traffic. :o)

Perhaps the government should put speed-limiters on all vehicles, because no one needs to go more than 80 mph?

They are essentially works of art.

“Where the HELL could I drive either car the way they deserve to be driven?”

There are numerous road circuits in the US where you could drive one of these cars as it was meant to be driven during an open-lapping day. If I could afford an R8 or a Gallardo (though I’d much rather have a 458 Italia), I could probably come up with enough scratch to take it to a track now and then.

I don’t know of anyone racing a Gallardo, but the R8 is classified for competition in FIA GT3, Pirelli World Challenge and USCC.
