If you can afford a R8 i would wait for the V12TDI twin turbo version ....just read that Audi destroyed a V10 twin turbo motor at the Nürburgring after the Turbos overheated.

Porsche GT2 - The right combination of performance, Looks, prestige, exclusivity. You can track it = and take it to the grocery store. Unlike some of the other cars listed, if history repeats itself - it will be worth more than your grandfather paid for it in 5 years.

I was always under the impression you need alot of skill to drive one? I know I couldnt handle that kind of car anytime soon. It would hand me my ass everytime.

I think I would take a GT3RS and then buy Caymen S for the streets with that kind of money.

I would convince him to buy you a luxury street car and a lightweight track car. why compromise when you have that kind of bank.

don't get me wrong, i love my imports, but i also LOVE AMERICAN MUSCLE!!! the Saleen seems like it is def. the best bang for the buck. i mean come on, the thing has 550 hp stock. if u ever wanted more you could throw a monster supercharger on it and would own everything. well, if u could catch traction that is. let us know what u decide.
