Makes for a great ride !
And Supershite seats [as found in the A3],all jokes aside the rotors real suit it.

No badge FTW.

Rotors look good, I think it's the first R8 I've seen with them on.

So, when you selling this one and what you getting next?

They do look the dogs on rotors but 2nd best to GT wheels. The y spoke things are a little flat IMHO

Nice one again DK
