nice! That is a gorgeous ride in spyder form! I'm a big fan of the R8 but not sure I want a car that would attract so much attention, thats one reason I like the Aston, people just don't notice it at all for the most part unless they are big car buffs. Maintenance on these cars can certainly be a downer, but thats why they depreciate so freaking much and allow us to purchase them in the first place, pick your poison I suppose.
I'm going to give my current car another year at least but I have the itch for a different one already after 2 years of owning the aston... exotic car bug bit me big time!

2009 DB9 Volante was $70k when I purchased it.
2014 Audi R8 V10 Spyder was $102k
Insurance on the R8 is $400 a year less than the Aston.
I would have thought with the Audi being newer, 50+ more HP and a legitimate 2 seater it would have been more than the Aston. Can anyone in the business give me the logic behind it? Is it all on the scarcity of the Aston?
