TDI's rule...My pops drives a TDI and every so often he's like " I better do my monthly fill up"..Nothing like 900+KM a tank :)

There was rumors that this was suposed to be the next motor inside a lambo. I guess VW/Audi changed their mind..

Dope ride

Lambo is owned by vdub. The R8 is just a cheaper sibling of the Lambo, would you ever buy a "TDIghini"? no cause if you can afford their prices you can afford regular gasoline. THUS why the R8 is gonna come deisel.

However the Gallardo has a lot of Audi stuff in it but it still dosent have the same precision-feeling as you would expekt. The sound though, while the R8 just purr's a little the Gallardo roars like a big ass lion!

I think it's nIce with a TDI especially if you are going too just cruise the streets like most of these will, you always have the low revs torque so you're able to bash the pedal to the medal from any roll-up.

Then it of course is a sort of Enviroment-perspective in this, a fast car with a cleaner engine since new diesels with the new filters put out less crap in the air than a gas version. Don't worry thou! It's coming with a V12 gas-version too ;)
