Moving up to a R8 V10 Plus
Got offered a great deal on one... 2017 fully loaded V10 Plus.

Thoughts on the car? Would sell my C63s for this.

Awesome engine soundtrack. Plus I think it will be a collectors item when everything is a turbo or hybrid.

We paid 50k more 6 months prior to the purchase of the R8+ for a H
The H get more attention than the R8+

As you and I both talked about in PM's the Lambo is not a daily driver and has a worthless rear view glass bonnet to see out of; its full of blinders. Ive owned both cars too and the Lambo is just not a daily driver and much more of an "event/look at me" car. If you intend to daily drive the H car, good luck. The R8 is far more advanced interior wise and just feels more solid too. When I drove my Lambo I felt like I was in a big shell of a car while in the Audi I am more connected to the road and the chassis.

If you need the "Exotic" title in the car you have I would not even consider the Huracan that but then again the nomenclature is highly subjective.

But it was a pretty car LOL

I feel like TOO much attention will get annoying. A pastel blue wrap on the R8 will be enough.
