    New R8 GT....Should I?

    I have the opportunity to get a new GT for MSRP. I would be trading my barely used 2011 r8 spyder. Just thought I would get the opinions of the forum. Thanks

    Getting one for MSRP is nothing new. I don't know anyone who has paid over.
    Not sure why you'd go from a spyder to a coupe GT when you could have bought a coupe in the first place though.
    If spyder is what you preferred in the first place, the spyder GT will be out next year. Just grab one of those for MSRP!

    I went from a coupe (v8) to a sypder (v10) to a coupe GT. I love the GT the most. The feel is awesome and the subtle tweaks make the car look great (and feel different). The only drawback is the suspension can be tough in some rough road. But, the tightness gives a great handingl feel. I dont mind it as the positives far outweigh this one drawback (which is not much of a drawback due to the added character). I use mine as a DD, so I dont even notice the roughness anymore.

    Take a look at it in person....and if you like the car and you do not mind the valuation of the trade in then do it. If the dealer allows you to test drive this car, then by all means take it out and get a feel for it before deciding.
