Default Drove an R8 last night!

So I had the luck to have an R8 come to the restaurant I valet at last night, and I must admit out of all the cars I have seen or driven the R8 is the sexiest on the road. The car had the r tronic transmission and taking it around "the block" was amazing. The guy is actually a regular at the restaurant and he just picked his up so I can only hope this is a weekly thing.

Now i can only hope to get a 6 speed manual

nice.

I'm signed up for the Audi Experience in August, I'm REALLY hoping for the chance for a go around the track in an R8, even if I'm not the one driving.

Further evidence that anyone who gives their car to a valet is an idiot.

I don't give my car to valets, but even if I did, I'm sure they would have a blast with my whole 174HP@ the Crank MUTHAFUKA"s. BVut seriously, I think I might valet this year so you all can rest assurd there will be one legit valet out there.


Also I would give a lot to get a ride/drive an R8. they are sooooo beautiful.

that's harsh, he didn't even say what the drive around the block was, everyone is just assuming that it meant he played with the car a bit, for all you know, it was legitimately a drive around a block to get to the proper parking spot.
