The article didn't focus much on the comfort, drive, or specifics of the car, but was a joy to read nevertheless.
Paul, why didn't you stop by? ![Cry :'(](https://www.autos.ca/forum/Smileys/CarTalk/cry.gif)
I've been following reviews of the R8, and most other reviews agree that the R8 is more than a match for a comparably-priced 911. That's pretty effing amazing. I've read one criticism about the interior (someone felt that there were a couple knobs that felt cheap), but for the most part, as one would expect from a pricey Audi, the interior is fantastic. Comfort is another area where the car seems to excel, offering good ergonomics, a lot of room for the genre, and good visibility for the genre (except that you can't see the four corners of the car for parallel parking).
Basically, the car is mind-blowingly great. I know that this will make me sound like a rabid Audi fanboy, but the R8 apparently really is that good.
