Default Based on aesthetics only which...?

Which would you rather have?

A Lamborghini Gallardo or an Audi R8??

Why did you pick the one that you did?

Lamborghini Gallardo

I don't care much for the R8s styling.

R8, just because it's something new and original

R8.

It may not be as fast or as powerful as the Gallardo, but it is nearly half the price and only 20mph slower at top speed. On top of that I really like the look of the R8, usually for the same reason that others tend to hate it. The front is mean, the side blades are a good touch. The tail looks like someone smacked it with a board but no matter. The standard features list contains many items that most performance cars have as options at best. The V8 doesn't sound as beautiful as a V10, but Audi is apparently working to add a V10 and their TDiV12 powerplants to the R8.

Eh, they're so similar. I'd have to go with the R8, just because of the LED headlights... that's really cool looking at night.

who the **** are you? the Gallardo has been around for a while dumbass and therefore, it is not as original as it once was when it was first introduced.

I'm gonna go with the R8 on this one; it's "unique". In fact, the only car in the world that looks like it happens to be an Audi: the LeMans Quattro (which shares its platform with the R8). The Gallardo is a cool car no doubt, but it looks like a miniature Murcielago, which has been around since 2000 or something, so it's not exactly "new", nor is it "unique".
