The R8 quattro Finally For Me!!!

They told me last year... They told me: Yes the R8 will visit you next year.. That year is this year and this "year" was today..

This is something special.. While driving along.. The "Audi People" is going crazy.. they are video taping me like I see moviestars caught on youtube "spotted"

Other people raise from their chairs and start to jump and klapp with their hands.. smiling.. woundering.. !
While driving on the road .. People are flashing with their lights and wave at us.. It's no joke. Im NOT some kind of superstar.. I'm only driving in a Audi R8 I almost shocked .. Not a singel person didn't look twice. It's so special .. so dam vell made.. It's clear Audi R8 it's a fantastic pice of design.

and btw let me ask you guys a question. Have any of you lied sideways with a R8 not 1 or 2 or 3 not 4, eaven not 5, but six times !??? WOW!

*we drove from Drøbak (hometown) to Oslo (capital) and I was left outside a gigant luxury hotel in the city.. Mouhaahah.. That car is a real STAR.

The sound, the carbon fiber, the light's the whole package..
I will never forget.. Never ever.. This beats everything I've tested.

The feeling is inexpressible! I love Audi R8 quattro




* I was the co-pilot.. the car is so low and sexy..
I hope I win the lottery next week



Photo's




Just look at it.. it's truly the king of the road as well.. tight bends in 100 km/t was no prob.

Re: The R8 quattro Finally For Me!!!

Seem like it was an awesome experience. I'm very happy for you, I'm still waiting for my time behind the wheel of a GT3. BTW did you get to drive it or was you just the co-pilot handling the AC and radio?

Awesome car, was witness when gt3 wiped f430 spider's ass, however there was techart extreme tunned car (there was more additional upgrades after techart did it by themself ) (kill me I forgot what was the model, all I remember it had (yeah had, cause it was crashed totally not much later) 900 hp and that car was fastest "thing" I have ever saw in my life
