haha jk, both gorgeous cars, and +1 on the R8 being short, I thought it was longer than that

That isn't my Z. Matter fact, it isn't even my picture. I was down there for business recently and was driving around downtown when I spotted it. I posted a thread about it in the South East regional forum and by coincidence the Z's owner had just already put up a thread about waking up and seeing the R8 parked in front of his Z. I took a few pics as well but never uploaded them since they are just like this pic.

The R8 is so hot! ... I saw one on 95 the other day just outside the mixing bowl. Me being the ricer that I-M, pulled up next to the guy and tried to see if he wanted to run, but I had no luck . What are those things looking like in HP and all? I know I would have probably gotten my doors blown off but still I just wanted to see it run.

I think the Two Tone piece on the R8 breaks up the body lines and makes the car apear shorter. Try and visualize the car without that or put your pinky infront of it on the screen.

Now here's the question R8 or GT-R? we should start a Mid-A poll!

Funny, at first glance the R8 looks like **** compared to that Z.

Engineering and performance aside, I dont really care much for the looks of the R8.

I also thought to myself "maybe its just the angle" since the Z looks bigger (and better), but then I found the above picture and STILL think the Z looks better.

Again, I am solely judging looks. I am sure the R8 is a fun car, even though I absolutely despise VW/Audi.
