    The 458 is seriously frickin fast. And it gets it done with narrower rubber.

    It's also smooth and easy in daily traffic grind.
    Put the suspension in "soft" and it is as comfy as SL63 (my current "daily")
    Surprisingly roomy,with generous legroom and elbow room ( I'm 6'5")

    Thought I'd ask "her/him" since my RS 6 is a dude.

    She is a pretty looking girl, that is for sure. Hope she does not have the high maintenance to match.

    So another question would be, why buy the Lexus?!? It is more expensive, not as good looking, AND slower?!?

    love it absent. love the car. hope the illegal mistress gets a ride once in a while


    ---on another note- the LFA- i guess the price is in the hand crafted exclusiveness of the car. though even then i'd have to say they overpriced it. i mean, that is 599 GTB territory, isn't it folks?
    Past- A4, TT, S4

    Present- R8 V10

    Gorgeous!

    Hey, I grew up in LF - does that qualify me for a test-drive!?!

    I must warn everyone to do any business with Oakley Design. I did and they still owe me money, and I know numerous examples of people who have the same experience.

    They tried Porsche, big fail. Now they're into Ferraris and Motorbikes???
