    You prefer the 6-speed manual Styler?
    I'm still going back and forth between them. Not sure which one to pick

    Mines a daily driver and I often commute into London so R-Tronic is a must for me..

    Re: R8 V10 Daytona and V8 AE

    I have E-gear on my LP640 Roadster and have chosen E-gear again for my LP560-4 Spyder. Just to make clear that I really like that type of transmission BUT I hate the position of the paddles on the R8 (attached to the wheel instead of fixed to the steering column).
    On my previous Gallardo Spyder I performed 10-12 powerlaunches and after 18 months and 35.000km I still had about 50% left on my clutch. I've been told if I would do that to the R-Tronic I would utterly destroy it ... although it is basically the same transmission

    If I ever start talking about buying a used car, please just slap me around a little until I come to my senses...

    Well, I can guarantee you if you bought the car you would be a very happy man. My cars are all being detailed each week, I drive them as they should be driven (never go past 3K RPM while they're not warm etc).
    The next owner now has the car for about a year and the only thing he does is tell people if they ever want to buy a used car they need to see me first
