Matt, after driving the R8, I can say it felt like a daily driver. It's just so easy to drive, comfortable, amd has the quality interior I became accustomed to with Audi. Anything else you get will probably feel like a brute in comparison, even though the R8 has plenty of power. I love the Ford GT and think it's an excellent choice. I really hope you get it and show it off with some great pics here.
