  here is a pic of a Red R8 : http://www.flickr.com/photos/antype/2774183766/in/set-72157610751072754/

  WOW! That R8 is exactly the way I want it to be! May not be as exotic as a Lambo or Ferrari, but definitely a head turner nonetheless!

  Hey guys can i ask you all what color choice would you have for a R8 if you had to pick one. so for eg. exterior, interior, sideblades,transmission & options.

   

  thanks

  Dark blue with carbonfibre sideblades and, of course, with Audi's DSG gearbox. 

  Added: But on second thoughts, manual might be better.

  Omg, "beast" spotted. Maybach 62. It's as long as a minibus. 

  And i think this picture would be better taken if you included more of the tarmac in the frame and showing the reflection of the car on the road since it's raining and the road is wet.

  Added: Well, just my own opinion.

  But red with carbonfibre sideblades looks so clashing.

  Oops, I got it wrong. DSG is double clutch. R8 only has the automated manual gearbox.

  What I meant was whether there's reallie an event happening. If there was then I can go down to take some pics.

  White with CF sideblades, Black interior, standard silver chrome rims with R Tronic transmission.

  My colour choice would depend on the car. No fixed colour for me! :D

  I'm starting to wonder if that tip-off about the lambo lo hei is just a plot/prank to get all us carhunters disappointed and stranded at Marina Mandarin. Lol.

  I'm still going though. Missed out on the last gathering at St Regis.
