i saw the r8 on maricopa highway 347 heading north towards chandler az just after 4pm local time on tuesday afternoon.

i was heading the other way so only got see it as went by me. got a clear view of the front and a quick shot at the back and have to say it was stunning! it will be a huge hit, and if its built with the normal audi quality and attention to detail it will be a great car.

this was the same road i saw the rs4 2 months before it hit dealer lots, and the same road that i saw severall 997 turbos being heat tested the summer of 05. 347 hits the 10 just south of chandler arizona and goes due south to a harrahs casino and eventually down to meet the 8.
