    Very nice pics, thanks for sharing! Now, how could you possibly go wrong with either car?

    I was wondering, does anyone have any info on the difference between to two's aerodynamics. The R8 at 187mph gets very close to the Gallardo's 192mph for 80hp less.
    Search and you will find the truth.

    Don't know that, but know you need much power to get even one mph faster on that speed.

    Hmm..the R8 don't have full electric seats? Weight saving?

    Excellent, the Audi has the nicer interior of course. But I don't see the R8 giving up much to the Gallardo in exterior design. Like I have always said the Audi R8 is a true exotic unlike other cars at 100,000 price range for example the 911 series. Both are great vehicles with their own special features but the great thing is that the R8 doesn't look like it doesn't belong in the same sentence or the same road as the Gallardo. This one is very much like the article that compared the R8 and the Ferrari F430.

    Interestingly, I read that the R8 has a very average drag factor of 0.35cd or something- so a top speed over 300km/h is pretty good. Lambo is similar I believe.

    Great pics! Also two of my fave cars, but I still want a Gallardo!:cool2:

    Those are the optional RS4 bucket seats. And yes, these have manual adjustment to save on weight. The standard sport seats have electronic adjustment as standard.

    This is the first time i see R8 and Gallardo together but i must say R8 is much nicer, it's design is stunning! Lamborghini is not even close...in my opinion.
    5 Audis so far...currently:
    2007 Audi A4 B7 2.0 TDI Multitronic
