random Audi talk

Recently my friend send me the link for the "new" Audi R8 and here(actually announced back in 2005~). The specs is pretty impressive, 420bhp, dry weight 1560kg(~3200lbs) is quite respectable on paper. But if I could afford a R8, I would probably go for a F430 instead. Since I was kinda let down by Audi for giving the roadcar only 420bhp. Comparing the roadcar to it's Le Mans Prototype sibling(Once 600+bhp, weighting about 2100lbs), the road going R8 seems like just an super pricey version of a RS4 without a trunk.

And don't get me started on the stupid new SUV...
