I would definitely feel like a man in an R8, and the woman at my side would think she has scored a great man... until the dude in the M3 drops you behind and you feel like a knob, and at the next set of the lights, the chick gets out ur car and gets in the M3... :thumbdo:
Yeah, cos that happens every day to R8 drivers worldwide. :nonono:
The only thing the Audi in this case will do is make the driver of the M feel like his genitalia is twice the size it actually is. If you need a V8 engine to prove yourself manly to a woman then you have bigger problems then the R8 driver.
A general note to think about in this comparison.
An R8 is a dedicated performance vehicle, it is twice the price new and is twice the price to insure and maintain. So in terms of material worth it is already twice the car.
Its a car which although not as fast in a straight line pretty much pi**es all over the M3 at what
it does best, and what
it is designed for.
Although a MINI is a great hatch, its a shocking family car. All cars have their pro's and con's. The M3 may keep up in a straight line but good luck over Chapmans Peak. Just like the M3 lets you be sensible and stupid, the R8 lets you be stupid and feel like the Shizz at the same time. IMO of course. But then I do like cars that are precise, point and shoot in their driving and I am a VAG sl*t in terms of the R8 so I may be a tad biased...
Doesnt living life at one quarter mile at a time get boring?
