Finally got one!

Well, I have a confirmed build for next week, but the waiting was killing me.

This Sat AM I was scanning the eBay R8 ads and found a private party sale 5 hours away in Cleveland, so my wife (who absolutely rocks) said lets pack up the kiddies and make a weekend out of it...

...so we drove to see it Sat night, stayed in a hotel, drove back home sunday (stopping at the Newport aquarium on the way back for the girls), and this afternoon, I flew to Cleveland, and just got back from driving it home, 400+ miles later

Too late to get pix up, but I will tomorrow. It's daytona grey/matching blades, black/alcantara int, 6 spd.

Mine should be here in 2-3 months, at which point I will likely sell this one (or keep it and sell the red one incoming, but likely I'll keep that one).

Anyone interested in the grey one, let me know now!

What a car. Speechless.......should have done this MONTHS ago!!!

Congratulation! I need to have my wife spend more time with yours.

Looks good - I like the r8 in grey (meanest looking stock colour imo) and in red (red makes the black plastic trim stand out more like with the silvers). Seems to be a lot more red/carbons in the car mags since they did the v12 tdi concept.

Nice car, you'll like it.
