Conny997:
Bad news, I think.
A possible Porsche 960 isn't for me really an alternative. The Audi R8 is and was for me the only Audi that has ever interested me. Maybe I will get one from the"Last Edition".
Funny that you mention it. This whole situation reminds me a little bit of the S8 "sale"... Maybe Audi will have to get rid of their cars at some point and this is probably the best occasion to snatch a car at an attractive price.
Btw: I think the R8 offers are now better than ever and I wouldn't be surprised if they get even better in winter time.
So like you, I am thinking about getting a last R8 (maybe facelift?) if they offer fantastic deals.
Only problem: New EU laws and how R8 facelift certification will go through. The new RS5 for example has a sport exhaust and it sounds like...crap. (not even close to the fantastic RS3 or TT RS sound). Even worse: No more exhaust button (switchable from loud to quiet and vice versa). Not permitted anymore by EU laws. If this happens to the R8 facelift (if there will be one ) as well, I am going to keep my R8 or I get myself a new one.
