X-Posted from AZ + Lots others
So I'm online yesterday and my buddy imed me telling me that my local dealer has a full Euro spec R8 (not street legal, not for sale, for show), Call my dealer guy and he says they do and I should come check it out. I got down expecting to just look at the outside and cry over it haha. He grabs the keys says we cant drive it Audi isn't letting anyone drive this one since its not legal. But he lets me get in the drivers seat mess with the buttons play with the radio then has me get out and stand behind as he starts the 4.2 V8 right on the showroom floor and revs it up causing EVERYONE to look in the dealer. People just kept talking about how awesome it was and I agree, I really like it but at $125,000 Price tag i will have to pass for now haha.

Good luck finding a ride in one in MN. From what I have heard there are already enough orders over at carousel for the next few years haha. none will be on the floor anytime soon IMO.
