I would say the cars a pretty different in the looks and handling departments. As for the engine the v10 is incredible, and I will say the capristo is the best exhaust. All the mechanics at the dealership were shocked at the quality compared to most other brands. They said it bolted up with zero fuss at all. The programmable remote is awesome as well and looks nicer then the normal key to be honest.

The car drives incredibly well. I absolutely love it. I've been fortunately to own lots of cool cars but this takes the cake as far as fun and cool. It absolutely catches your eye everytime.

If your interested in a capristo exhaust contact me. I can help you out. More pics soon!

Unfortunately no its not carbon buckets, they didnt bring those to the states. I went with all red stitching on my car to tie in the red GT logo and the red brake calipers on the car. I think it looks fantastic, but Im biased

Cant wait, its also getting a Capristo exhaust installed by the dealer currently, 15% window tint, and full clear bra all over the front and rear fenders. I am told by Audi there's a possibility this is the only sepang blue GT being built! Ill post more pictures when I get the car.

Time for a GMG WC-GT exhaust system

Hey guys. Just want to give you a quick update. I have driven the car a bunch over the past few days and its fantastic. Absolutely a great drivers car. The power feels good, although Ive been nursing it for some break in miles. The only thing I absolutely hate is the gearbox. It needs a dual clutch trans, the single is rather rough on downshifts at times for me.

Also I think its strange that you spend well over 200k for this car and its not even an option or standard to have automatic driving lights, or a homelink system! Literally you cant get it which drives me nuts.

I will get you some videos of the exhaust soon. You will love the sound!

I'm curious... Based on this post, may I ask why you chose the GT instead of the regular V10?

And I agree with your opinion about the dual clutch (not the GT, I've never driven one, but rather the R8 in general).
