I also test-drove a 2017 R8 V10 Plus in the same color as the one in the pics posted at the start of this thread, as part of evaluating the purchase of my new Huracan.

I really liked the R8 -- fantastic vehicle. In the end though I preferred the Huracan for mostly intangible reasons... The Italian design has a certain soul to it. For someone who prefers Teutonic design, the Audi would be a no-compromise vehicle.
