wab172uk Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 As per title. Sold my 2 year old Twilight grey 370Z GT + satnav a few weeks ago. Has been a very nice car to own. Got approving looks wherever I went. Was plenty quick enough, and never put a foot wrong. Will miss it. Have now bought an Audi R8. Quote
EH 370z Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 Nice buy. The R8's are a fantastic car for the money, and just as usable as a 370Z day to day, which is odd because they certainly don’t look it! What spec did you get? Quote
HassanZ Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 We had an R8 convertible V10 for the weekend a month ago for my mates wedding - Very nice! Quote
Paul Smith Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 As above I'm interested in what colour you have went for Quote
MITZ@CougarStore Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 Nice upgrade to the R8, looking forward to seeing the photos... Quote
wab172uk Posted November 21, 2011 Author Posted November 21, 2011 V8 Manual. Black with Silver side blades. Will take some pics and get them uploaded. Quote
rabbitstew Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 Very nice. Was watching Transformers 2 last night with the missus and she goes "oo look, theres your car" and I had to then point out to her it wasnt a zed it was an R8. She replied "but its the same colour"..... sigh. I still really quite fancy an R8... not sure if i`ll ever get one... maybe when I retire.... Quote
rogerxp Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 Well, at least when you look out of your window and notice the Zed isn't there, something else is that will bring a smile to your face . argh, my avatar has vanished . Quote
Storm White Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 Clearly the Z didn't attract quite enough attention! Lovely upgrade. Quote
Stew Posted November 23, 2011 Posted November 23, 2011 Nice.viewtopic.php?f=70&t=55967# My Mates mum has a V8 manual as her 'Good car' (has an Evoque for everyday now) and hers is often seen with the dogs bed in the passenger seat as the dog just goes with her! Hers is a V8 manual too, had a shot one day, was very nice. Quite a popular car up here and fairly discreet really, lets in use daily - including winter. You get noticed when you boot it though.

sipar69 Posted November 23, 2011 Posted November 23, 2011 I'm not keen on the look of a lot of 'super cars' but I think the R8 is a really nice looking car - looks cool without being too flashy. Quote

SparksCW Posted December 13, 2011 Posted December 13, 2011 Nice!!! That's what I dream of one day, 350Z now, 370Z next then an R8...! The thought keeps me going at work anyway haha. Really would like to see some pictures! Quote
Number86 Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 R8 is beautiful car. Better looking and more imposing than it's big lambo brother the Gallardo. The V8 though, how does it compare to the z? Obviously it's faster, but by how much. I've heard reports of that engine under delivering badly on the RS4. To rub it in a bit more. You'll get spanked by a remapped TT-RS Quote
