    My dad had an R8 v8 manual for more then 11 years. Sold 2 years ago with about 70.000km experience. Did 304km/h on the German autobahn and lots of >290km/h’s back in the day. Last couple of years getting to these speeds was getting harder and harder (at the Autobahn close to our border). Car is more stable at high speeds then my 991.2 C4S.
    Reliable “supercar” without any big issues. Great driving experience and the looks are still as good as it was when the car was released. Only issue my dad had was paint falling of the paint at the sideskirts under the sideblades. Was solved under guarantee.
    Maintenance and wear items were the only thinks. Offcourse this still makes it an expensive car, but cheap when comparing it to an Ferrari or Lambo of (back then) the same value (360 / Gallardo).
