And this review is as loaded as it gets.

Dirty Audi trannies.

Although if someone sticks their shopping bag in there for real, it might be a different story.

And I have to give Audi credit for LED DRLs, they are heads and shoulders above ignorant high-beams from the Schumacher taxi coming towards you.

1.) Is Rachel Sklar perhaps a true newly-converted Jalop? Or...
2.) Did she enjoy the challenge of the shredding she received here by some, along with subsequently defending herself, as opposed to the (I'm guessing) usual fangirl/fanboy/nothing but postive reinforcement-type comments on the sites she writes for?
3.) Is she just loving the newfound attention? Let's face it, her article on Mediaite got three comments... the thread on her linked article here on Jalopnik got 17,315 pageviews and 189 comments (as of my writing this), and it's still going.
4.) Is there a clause in her contracts that gets her an extra hundred bucks for every 10,000 pageviews her articles receive, and now she's all of a sudden posting on a half-dozen threads here, trying to cultivate her new-found Jalopcrowd? Hmmmm....?
Stay tuned... film at 11.

I'm sure it's still a great car with the V10, probably even a better car in all the ways that matter in this market segment and many more. Audi will undoubtedly reach a whole world of buyers who don't care about the V8 R8, and of course Audi's goal is to make money, so good for them. I'll probably never own an R8 in any configuration, so what business is it of mine? Nonetheless, I wish Audi had taken a page from Honda's NSX playbook and said "no" to upsizing the engine - they had it right the first time.

If some is good.
And more is better,
then too much is just right.

No. When the monied by cars, it's about the experience as much as the performance. You and I might not be in that market, but you have to recognize that market exists.

Is that question really for real?

Having never heard one, I can only guess that the sound alone makes it worth the cash for those lucky few who have it.
