When I drove the R8, I was surprised how refined it was compared to my time in a LP Gallardo. Despite sharing the same chassis and underpinnings, Audi somehow made it very DD-able. Granted, the Gallardo I drove was a LP570-4 Performante which is the hardcore version, but the R8 absorbed the bumps and felt plenty insulated.

Only issue I see are the massive blind spots where the side blades are, that should detract from the DD quality of the R8.

I have no complaints about the 86 -- I don't have any blind spots and it makes for a great DD.
