I've seen a couple on the street, and on Monday there was a silver one at the Toronto autoshow. Its a stunning automobile with great details. I think the controversial blades are there to help break up the visual mass of the rear, which is quite bulky. I really like it, different then all the regular stuff.

If that V12 diesel comes to market, it will make for a very unique performance machine, and I think that's something to get excited about. I agree that the GT3 might be a better drivers car, but I could spend as much on a Carrera 4S as the R8, and at that point, I personally would choose the R8, much more interesting, and it will always be rarer than the dime a dozen 911 (although obviously I like that car, too!).
