This car is an exotic.  The Z06 simply isn't.  Of course the Z06 could hang with it at the track, but that isn't the point of cars like this.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jake]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 11th 2007 5:26PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2007/04/11/ab-set-to-tune-audi-r8/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2007/04/11/ab-set-to-tune-audi-r8/</guid><description><![CDATA[A 1.000.000 times better than OEM.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Lucas]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 11th 2007 6:06PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2007/04/11/ab-set-to-tune-audi-r8/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2007/04/11/ab-set-to-tune-audi-r8/</guid><description><![CDATA[They'll make you a smokin' deal.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[mr.ed]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 11th 2007 10:56PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2007/04/11/ab-set-to-tune-audi-r8/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2007/04/11/ab-set-to-tune-audi-r8/</guid><description><![CDATA[Why even compare a Corvette with an Audi? That's offensive to all exotic cars like this. In terms of class and style overall the Audi blows Corvette out the water. Sure Corvette's are fast but that's all they have going for 'em. They're boring and the corvette interior depresses me (a friend just bought an 06). I prefer the whole package and something rare that not every man with a little bit of money can easily buy. Please don't let me hear any more "I can buy a corvette and save more money" comments, it's pointless.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Eriq]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 12th 2007 12:04AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2007/04/11/ab-set-to-tune-audi-r8/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2007/04/11/ab-set-to-tune-audi-r8/</guid><description><![CDATA[I'm sorry but you CAN compare the Z06 to any exotic now.  Hell Ferrari copied the Vette for the new 599.  But anyways I do like the looks of this car more without the mismatched colored moveable gill panel thing.  Plus the Audi should have had this supercharger in the first place to justify the price to me.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[HotRodzNKustoms]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 12th 2007 12:38AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2007/04/11/ab-set-to-tune-audi-r8/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2007/04/11/ab-set-to-tune-audi-r8/</guid><description><![CDATA["Plus the Audi should have had this supercharger in the first place to justify the price to me."<br><br>bwaahahahahahha so good.  remind me of the last time audi used a supercharger again? lol. being a fan of American cars is one thing, being completely ignorant of a car companies progress the last two decades is another.  And while you can, indeed, compare it to a z06 i doubt any of it's prospective buyers would, they're not looking for cheap speed or best bang for the buck, when you're dropping 100,000$ on a car (for the base R8) there are other qualifying factors.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[ruggels]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 12th 2007 1:53AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2007/04/11/ab-set-to-tune-audi-r8/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2007/04/11/ab-set-to-tune-audi-r8/</guid><description><![CDATA[Not sure if I like the whole 80's Camaro look to the front end..

BUT, I'm a person with common sense. Yes, it would be nice to drive a car that the average Joe can't get his hands on(proving little in the long run), but the last time I checked a cars performance, matched by it's price was the most impressive/important factor of the car. Still as stated before, if someone gave me an Audi R8 I'd accept it in a heartbeat. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Leon]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 9th 2007 3:06PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
