g-force Report post Posted September 12, 2009 Had the salesman squirming in his seat...funny.. Respectable power much better than the v-8 version. I could see where a heffner tt version would be a killer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

g-force Report post Posted September 14, 2009 It's that bad huh? Just too refined..smooth for me..but then I'm comparing it to my TTG straight pipes,no cats, no mufflers... the TTG had literally scores of pedestrians either scared or pointing last week on the strip in Vegas with just moderate revving. Guess I'm just a gluton for Attention? Seriously though with ECU flashing ,muffler mods etc this is really a fine car IMHO.

After having multiple Lambos the obnoxious loud exhaust gets old but of course my V10 will get an exhaust system once it arrives! Can't wait, the V8 is the best car i have owned!

TRANSAMERA Report post Posted September 18, 2009 Damn they are selling the v10 r8's new for $110,000? here they cost 160K Euro - almost the same as a LP560, or a used for the same amount. The R8 V10 is a much better car but it will never ever be a Lamborghini. But it pulls more pussy than a SL Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swil Report post Posted October 15, 2009 I remember the V-8 R8 was limited production 150 a year to the US for 2years, but the V-10 has yet to be determined how long and how many. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Report post Posted October 15, 2009 I remember the V-8 R8 was limited production 150 a year to the US for 2years, but the V-10 has yet to be determined how long and how many. I think 150 is low as I see them all over the place, but it's still probably less than 350-500 annually for the US. Can't imagine the resale value of a Gallardo if only 350 of them or fewer were sold a year... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
