What would you go home with?

[tazsura]

Gallardo...no...R8 definately. I mean the Gallardo...the Lambo R8?...ermm.....no defo the Audi Gallardo...for sure.

Lol..Gallardo....but just by a whisker! (I think )

[The RS6]

R8 for me, thank you.

Gallardo - too loud, too flashy, R8 looks better
Aston Martin - don't want a fully equiped ford mondeo coupe
Ferrari 360 spider - kinda oldish, no thank you. Also, not a big fan of the sound or the design...
Porsche - if I can't have the 997 Turbo, I wouldn't have a Porsche

[Ruergard]

I have no need in being the quickest, so I'll go for the R8. The looks... the loooks!


And oh, there's a company called MTM. And they could probably help me being the quickest if I'd like to...

[Leadfoot]

I would always pick the Audi first and foremost and those of you which picked one of the others in the list I hope you ashamed of yourselves even considering them, but to actually vote for one of them you really need to be taken outside and flogged.

AUDI R8 RULES.

[tazsura]

Haha...i just know the best is yet to come from the R8!...besides i already have the same engine the RS4!

(Well that's my justification anyway.... )

[AndyBG]

Porsche 997/911 Carrera 4S for me !

Aston Martin is beautiful, but it all stops there...
Lambo' is GREAT, but I just think that Porsche is better car.
Ferrari is now getting old...
Audi R8 would be my second choice.

I'd defo have the GT3 over the R8 but not the 4S.

I've never been a fan of the styling of the Aston and thus have never liked it at all....the DB9 is a far better looking machine in my eyes and is the Aston i'd go for now that the Vanquish has vanished!

[AndyBG]

911 4S is just perfect IMHO, of course, GT3 and turbo are even better solution, but 4S with ''leistung paket'' is excelent car...

Astons are, now, vanished...

[LamboM]

I would take without a questrion , and blind floded
The Gallardo , it's not the fastest (it's the 2nd fastest here).
But it is the most beautiful , and it is one of my personal favorit supercars.
In here it really is Top of the line.

[LamboM]

Its the fastest in a straight line, no question !

O oops Right, I thought it was a 997 turbo, I am a little high right now (not from drugs or alcohol, I don't know I'm just high), but yeah it is the fastest, and it also can out handle most cars here if not all of them.

[Leadfoot]

Boring in every way for me. Porker would be last.

1) Gallardo
2) 360 Spider
3) AMV8
4) R8
5) Porker

A good flogging is a coming soon.

But seriously mate, how in the hell could you put either the Aston or 360 ahead of the R8, the Aston looks great and sounds amazing but the actual driving experience isn't really that great and as for the Ferrari, you and I don't see eye to eye of it so less said the better.

As for the Gallardo, the only reason for picking it over the R8 is pure snobbery. The R8 is the better car in every way apart from acceleration and top speed.

[nene]

Gallardo I'd take home. R8 and 997 4S a very close second.

[ben916]

close between the R8 and Lambo, but the R8 is my vote

[Leadfoot]

I think the best compliment that can be given to the R8 is everyone saying that it can easily cope with more power and in fact feels underpowered. This proves that the chassis is so well balanced and designed that even 420hp feel inadequate, and remember not to many years ago the top Porsche, the Turbo only had this much and no one was complaining.

I feel the R8's problem is Audi have in their efforts to make the best handling supercar have done too good of a job and made it too user friendly. It possibly the reason why you are preferring the Gallardo and the Ferrari because they require that bit more effort to get the desired results.

The results from the Ferrari site is to be expected because snobbery is one of the many reason why someone would chose a Ferrari over a Porsche which is by far the better engineered car and better overall package, prior to the R8 that is of course. There is something great about saying you drive a Ferrari or Lamborghini over something like a Porsche or Audi, regardless of how good they are.

[Leadfoot]

Couldnt disagree more with your snobbery claims. The experience and sense of occasion you get driving a Ferrari or a Lambo is something you cannot compair to a Porsche, Audi etc. Its nothing to do with snobbery. Its heritage, history, motor racing, passion. Every person on that Ferrari site can tell you about Enzo Ferrari, where he started, his history and they can tell you the ins and outs of nearly every car that the company has made. Snobbery does not even come into it. The are many reasons why you would choose a Ferrari over a Porsche, nothing to do with snobbery at all.
Ferrari and Lamborghini are two of the finest car makers in the world, why would you not want to own one.

The fact is that the R8 is not at this level and not in this market. Ferrari and Lambo enthusiasts are simply not that interested in it.

By the way how to do you expain that the Lambo was also the favourate car on two Audi sites. Is everyone on these sites snobs too, or is it that the Lambo is more desirable ?

Sorry mate, if you felt this was a dig at you personally as this wasn't my intent. The snobbery I talk about it the same for every car nut who loves cars the world over, I too would have pick either the Ferrari or Lambo prior to driving one of them but my experience didn't live up to my expectations. I think most people would put either of them on a pedestal like I did but the reality is they are nothing that special, sure they are quick and both have a great sound but my experience left my feeling and thinking words like 'felt cheap and where was the money in it', compared to the GT3 is it didn't feel as will engineered or mechanical but this might have been down to the F1 transmission.

Ferrari have an amazing history and heritage but so has Porsche and both have mountains more than Lamborghini. I believe the reason most picked the Lambo was it's supercar looks and the R8 was not picked higher because most can't get past the brand image of a people's car, a brand for the masses. The point I was making about the Ferrari site was the similar hatred that they have for Porsche like we have for BMW and vice versa.

Truth me mate anything I say is not directed at a fellow Audi owner, well unless you include you know who.

[artur777]

People,

I go for Gallardo...
Sorry R8 - you are great but not that exciting and feel a little bit underpowered...
Ferrari - is ok, but a little bit too old...

And I understand elstimpo, why he and other people choos Gallardo...
It's a stunning car even if it's not the best handler and etc...

And about history, heritage and etc...
What could be better than cars made by Enzo Ferrari or Feruccio Lamborghini??? They are really top of the top and no other manufacturers are close to them in terms of excitement, feelings and etc...

[Z07]

Couldnt disagree more with your snobbery claims. The experience and sense of occasion you get driving a Ferrari or a Lambo is something you cannot compair to a Porsche, Audi etc.

You could compare it to driving a Fiat though. A really expensive Fiat.

And you mean that's something a Porsche doesn't have?

Couldn't resist!
