| ![]() Ok,I might receive a lot of flak for this but I'm not a big fan of that blacked out roof. An Italia or a Gallardo might pull it off but not the R8. Its much too sober and understated compared to others of its ilk. And this particular example looks a bit hoity-toity. Or maybe its the matte finish. It would have been interesting if it were gloss. Maybe. |

Don't know, I kind of like the Black/red combo, maybe it's looking different than the conventional R8's we seen. But I agree with your point on the matt black part. Although I was informed that it's carbon fiber finish (which should look great) but I don't get to see that through the pictures. Love the pics though, expecially the side profile! Those alloys totally changed the look of the car! | |

| ![]() Finally! I got to shake hands with the new hottie in town on Sunday night. I was so, I mean SO flabbergasted when I saw her that I even forgot to click any pics, moreover, it was midnight, so no pics would've done justice to her beauty anyway. Truth be told, I too had reservations regarding her matte black roof right until the moment I saw it in metal, it just somehow works. The side-blades and rear spoiler are CF. Another thing, the color, is not 'Brilliant Red' which is the color from the Audi catalogue, this is a custom-mixed shade which is more closer to the Rosso Corsa. @Anand - If you mean the 'H' guy, he's abroad at the moment and I shall update once he returns. He did check out the Lambos at the Delhi showroom recently but has given me no hopes of picking one any time soon. |

![]() The blackened matte roof is really not doing justice at all to the vehicle.Also according to me the other 5*2 spoke edgy rims for the R8 works better.Somehow this car is looking really fussy,and somewhere reminds me of a toyota sera..and thats not good! ![]() Anyways just my personal opinion..no offence meant to anyone! | |

| ![]() Ditto! Not a big fan of the matte black roof. Glossy finish would have looked great.Also looks like he has gone for a different front grill too.i remember the r8 having quite a lot of chrome on the front grill. Not to say that if I was offered the car or even a drive I would refuse.lol. |
