Audi is pretty high in Global Popularity, but drops in US popularity. Acura on the other hand is more popular in US than the World. Mercedes' popularity is much the same, except there is little difference between the two. Lexus has the least popularity in this comparison in Global Terms, but is a lot higher in US popularity.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/380483849342342305-7794895229768300491?l=trendcars.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Alexnoreply@blogger.com0http://trendcars.blogspot.com/2008/02/laabb-competition-1.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-380483849342342305.post-90964732631933942432008-02-24T18:09:00.000-06:002008-02-24T19:47:42.877-06:002008-02-24T19:47:42.877-06:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/5790/speedbj2.png"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px;" src="http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/5790/speedbj2.png" border="0" alt="" /></a><br />The first time I saw this car, it was around Super Bowl weekend, and I loved the design the moment I set eyes upon it. It comes with the speed of a top-notch sports car, the luxury of an Audi, and an amazing design to come with it. This car is a gas guzzler though; going at 15 miles to the gallon. Like I always say though; if you are going to buy a car at this price, gas shouldn't be your main concern. If you are wondering what some specs and features are for this car, here you go:<br /><ul><li>Top Speed of 187</li><li>420 hp at 7,800 rpm</li><li>Max Torque: 317 lb-ft @ 4,500-6,000 rpm</li><li>23.8 Gallon Fuel Tank (not a very great travel car in case you haven't noticed)</li><li>Aluminum Foot Rests- I guess if you are tired at a light, you can rest your feet on the two foot rests that come with this car.</li><li>Heated Front Seats</li><li>Tire-Pressure Monitoring System</li></ul>The Audi R8 is a great sports car and comes from a very reliable brand, its price is coming at you for <span style="font-weight: bold;">$115,600 MSRP in Manual Transmission and $124,600 MSRP in Automatic Transmission. </span>A pretty good sum of money, but is considerably cheap considering the specs this car has. With a V8, 4.2 L, 420 HP Engine, who wouldn't want this car?<br /><span style="font-style:italic;"><br />Click Images For Best Quality</span><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/8710/interior1go8.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" src="http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/8710/interior1go8.png" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/9176/extrerior1yd1.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" src="http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/9176/extrerior1yd1.png" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/5360/grayinteriorce4.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" src="http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/5360/grayinteriorce4.png" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/8163/enginepe5.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" src="http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/8163/enginepe5.png" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/1700/blackinteriormv7.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" src="http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/1700/blackinteriormv7.png" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/8306/Blue-exterior.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" src="http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/8306/Blue-exterior.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/9176/extrerior1yd1.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" src="http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/9176/extrerior1yd1.png" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/5732/exterior2gt7.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" src="http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/5732/exterior2gt7.png" border="0" alt="" /></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/380483849342342305-9096473263193394243?l=trendcars.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Alexnoreply@blogger.com0http://trendcars.blogspot.com/2008/02/audi-r8.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-380483849342342305.post-84919750890162541822008-02-24T17:13:00.000-06:002008-02-24T17:47:50.307-06:002008-02-24T17:47:50.307-06:00If you have any questions or comments, feel free to email me at trendcars@gmail.com.
