An R8 spotted in the wild

I was trailing this guy for a couple of hours on my way home yesterday. Way cool!

I saw in general parking at the Road America Grand-Am race in 2011. It was a beautiful machine. If I won the lottery, that would be my supercar of choice.

I've seen a few around here, they are much smaller than I expected.

I saw one when I was picking up my ex girlfirend from work one day. Left and snapped a few pictures. I will have to find them and post them up. Silver with carbon fiber accents/blades with the v8. I think it was the tiptronic transmission. There is an all black one around my town here as well. I see the owner come in and get groceries every once in a while while im leaving work
