I feel like there are better platforms at that amount of money due to the R8s weight though, but I don't know much.
Regardless, I'll

I think that is why I am drooling over it so much. Rarely ever see anything like that. I know it is on their site, but never see much out of them.

Most guys who twin turbo get the V10. They are still very expensive compared to a GT-R if you compare years. I'm looking at buying one when I get back but used V10's are still over 100 grand. Getting a used R8 V8 vs a used R8 V10 is like the difference between buying a 997.1 and a 997.2 which can be a 30k difference or more used.
Good run though.

I feel like the R8 is so much more rare, but I don't care to look up actual production numbers.

I prefer the R8 to the Gallardo as well.
And the V10 is a must for a Twin Turbo conversion. I know it's all about the circles you run in, but there are a bunch of TT Gallardo's running around here in the Big D. Apparently, that platform is the best around for putting mega power down w/o blowing the tires off of it.
Me either, but I agree. You don't see as many of them as you do GTR's and Gallardo's.
