Brave colour choice.

Post by Kev.S » Mon Jul 23, 2007 10:27 am

Saw five R8s on the road and loads around the Inglostadt factory last week. Most were black, or silver and some white, all looked great, but this one came and parked behind me and the only word to describe it was 'stunning'. At one point, there were 25-30 people around it, snapping it with their cameras.

You must have read this 'mid edit'!

BTW- any news from your dealer about the C6 RS yet? I'm going to traipse along to mine sometime this week and take the plunge.

Still no definative news.

All they know for sure is the official launch will be sometime this year, with deliveries around March - June 2008. That said, i'll only believe what's happening when i see confirmation for myself.

By all accounts it will be an awesome piece of kit, but i've still seen no confirmations as to the engine etc. just rumours.
