Yeah, but then you have to drive an audi instead of a TT, no thanks.

I dont think the R8 is going to be able to challenge the 997TT, not without stepping on its brothers toes (Gallardo) anyways. If they offer it around 80k base then its a 997S challenger though. Time will tell.

LOLOLOLOLOL . yea, an audi, lol. i totally agree! i dont think it will be even in the 11's for ET. id give it low 12s prob good competition for the 996TT. i have to say although i love gallardos, the thing i dont like is the audi dash, not very attractive to me.

Yea Greg, honestly i still love the Gallardo, and would still want to get one. Although the 997tt is 100x more appealing to me now than ever, in every category and over the Gallardo, for the drive the hell out of it factor and good looks, not as good as Gallardo but still not bad looking! The Gallardo's interior was like hopping in an S4/RS4 LOL, didnt have an exotic presence at all, that is until you looked out the side mirrors

i def think the gallardo and the 997TT have different styles. i still find both to be exotic but in different way completely. love them both but the audi dash isnt justified, but still thats my only complain with it. my only complaint with the turbo is the quiet exhaust. so if thats all i find wrong with them both, thats fine, one little thing for each. the 997TT is def the way to go. youll def get prob just as many heads turning with it, whether you want them or not, and it goes like a bat outta hell! better in all performance catagories over the 06 gs too, that i def agree with.

Well R8 is official, 420hp V8. That wont cut it and I'd bet a 997S will take it.
If they launch the V10 then sure, that one would be worth watching.

No, right place. Audi is positioning it is an "everyday supercar" (V10). What better place than the TT forum?

Press is calling it their first 'supercar'. 0-62 in 4.6 seconds is hardly supercar criteria...great, cant wait to hear the first one get schooled by a stock Evo IX.
