		I’ve had 3 Audis and never had a service problem, but that being said, The R8 is a high performance sports car and those cars do require special attention and more maintenance than your typical sedan.
		Audi’s new engines have DFI and while you need premium gas to make the sucker purr it is well worth it, my 2.0T gets 450 miles per tank AND I have the performance to go with it.
		It’s also interesting that the head of Audi was quoted at the launch party as saying that this was designed to be “a supercar for your wife, for women.” Problem is my wife would prefer the Gallardo as well.

	2008 Audi R8 Review - Edmunds.com
		The R8 continues Audi's tradition of originality in interior design, employing a cockpit-style theme that the company calls monoposto, an arc of controls that wraps around the driver in the style of a single-seat racing car.
		The R8 is almost as quiet and easygoing as Audi's own sedans, partly thanks to electromechanical steering, plus shock absorbers whose electromagnetically controlled fluid adapts to the road surface.
		Only in terms of steering feel does the R8 seem to be a little less visceral than the 911, and when driven at the limit, the midengine Audi is easier to control than the rear-engined Porsche.

		With a diesel in the R8, "the sky is the limit," said an Audi board member.

	Ti Kan: Audi
		Audi's winning legacy in motorsports (from the 1930s Auto Union grand prix cars to rallying, to Trans Am, to IMSA GTO, to DTM, to Super Touring, to today's Le Mans and ALMS tour de force) also amply demonstrate the "unfair advantage" of many of its technologies.
		Audi is also one of the most environmentally-conscious automobile makers, with very high recycling content (in the cars themselves as well as in manufacturing waste materials), the first to use water-based paints, and even the use of trees that are past their fruit-bearing age for the wood trims in the interiors.
		Audi engineers are not afraid to think outside of the box and Audi drivers buy the cars based on their merits, not on pre-conceived notions of image or prestige.
