Ah the R8 spyder really is pure sex.  If I had 200k to blow, I don't think I would think twice.

Oh yeah, that it sure is.  It's one of the most sexiest vehicles on the market today IMHO.  Have you had the pleasure of driving one yet? 

Drove it twice at test fest, took it on the track for 30 min, amazing machine.

911 turbo was faster and the sls too but the r8 was by far the most fun.

Yeah ok, I officially hate you now!   ;D   LOL   I'm sure it was such an amazing car to drive....very envious and very jealous over here.   :)

But our S2K's are far superior right??  At least tell me that so I can feel better.   ;D

I bet you an S2K with FI could get around a track as fast, or faster than an R8.
How fast is my 911?  Supras sh*t on on me all the time...in reverse..with blown turbos  :( ...

The R8 actually felt very light and nimble.  The driving position and snick snick shifter, it was very similar to the S2000 to be honest.

But to bear bad news, the R8 does it all that little bit better.  And even with FI the S2000 not as fast.  The R8 V10 is fast, felt much faster than my S2000, which is pretty quick.

That Camaro is not bad if you're a Transformers Bumblebee Autobot fan.

Yep - I bet it rocks the 11 year old demographic.
