Default Who drives this R8?

Saw a badass grey/silver Audi R8 at BJ's Restaurant in Webster at lunch yesterday. I walked by it and did a double take and had to take a pic of what I saw with my phone.

If I remember correctly the supercharger kits on the v8's run somewhere around 30-40k. I almost fell out of my seat when I was pricing them. They only add like 100-120 bhp.

Thats the VF engineering kit its 25k sorry the MTM kit runs 39k.

the V8s run around $130,000, the V-10 closer to $200,000 MSRP
