That still puts them behind Ferrari who can for the most part do the whole job in house.
Do you contend that invalidates Audi's racing pedigree?

Ever heard of the Audi race cars?

Audi has a commendable Le Mans record, but it can't hold a candle to Ferrari's racing history.

When people are claiming it maters, yes. Does that make it a bad car, no. If it's a better car than the competition should I hold the lesser racing pedigree against it, no.

The 430 was his first choice and he thought reliability on these cars was much better than previous Ferraris. For example he tells me there's no belt service like you have to do with the 360 since there are chains? But now he's still concerned b/c the car is out of warranty.
Perhaps an extended warranty?

But I tell him you have to pay to play.

The gallardo was pretty fun he says, but he found the steering and eGear of the 04 he drove to be a little numb and not as connected as the 430. Has anyone driven the 06 and above?


The r8 of course if the cheapest of the three and still has a warranty. Certainly has the looks, but then he talks about how it has less power

The 06 plus is a vast improvement over the 04 in the Gallardo. The egear is improved as well as the gearing is shorter. There is a little more horsepower and the steering was changed.

I know both Ferrari and Lamborghini have CPO programs if he needs coverage.

Do the parts from Japan include really ill fitting body panels?
Perhaps, you could also pray to the car gods for some titanium valve springs.
