The Audi R8 – Redefining Beauty…
@ February 7, 2008
It’s not the car you idolized as a kid.
It never made your bedroom wall, or high school locker.
And there were no 1/18th scale models of it on your shelf.
Because it didn’t exist.
The Audi R8 – Revise your list of dream cars.
Consider that list revised! Move over, Ferraris, Lambos, and Porsches; we have a new winner. In fact, I feel a sudden, strong urge to save up $100K, just so that I can get my hands on one of these some day.
A car this stunning deserves an equally impressive ad campaign, and Audi’s promo site for the R8 doesn’t disappoint. Their “Dimension R8″ sequence is quite simply the best ad for a car I have ever come across — the music, the matrix-esque camera angles, and the lighting and scenery just set your pulse racing. Don’t miss it!
It really is something special. Given the choice though, I think I would still go for a Lotus Elise (Or Exige should someone wish to throw money at me :D)
Ah, the Elise. :)
Can’t forget that experience I had with it at Google last summer. Great car! I’d opt for the R8′s design any day, but then again, the Elise is almost half the price, if I remember correctly.
Gorgeous car. Have you seen the Superbowl commercial for it? I loved it. =)
Bilal: Yeah, the Godfather one. Classic! :D
I can pick up a decent (Second hand, natch) Elise round here for close to £8k. I can’t see myself getting an R8 for that any time soon… I’d certainly have a hard time choosing between the two though. I’ve always said I’ll have either british or japanese cars, which would rule out the R8, though just looking at it is drool-inducing :)
it’s an awsome looking car but i think i’d still prefer a ferrari 430.
I love the car. Beautifully designed car with the designs and features I’ve only dreamed about.
There are some excellent HDR Audi R8 photos here:

Nice! Those are awesome, Bilal. :)
Woooow.. I love this supercar, it is the best of Audi in last years. Here is more interesting info. about this Greta car: http://passioncars.blogspot.com
one word: WANT!
Audi has done a good job with that car. Although I still would rather get a used NSX for 30k-40k, that to waste 100k on an audi. With a Honda at least I know it will run at 200K miles. can't say the same about audi. Although I will admit the design is impressive.
The V10 version really upped the appeal in my opinion.
