Cars.com's Joe Wiesenfelder takes a look at the 2008 Audi R8. It competes with the BMW M6 and Porsche 911.Shot and produced by: Sarah Gersh&Eric RossiEdited by: Lindsay Bjerregaard
The Audi driver's hands were made of ham then. At track days econoboxes will sometimes lap Ferraris because those drivers can go quickly whereas the Ferrari playboys can't (sometimes).

Yeah most definitely. The marketing here in America actually encourages people to buy automatic cars because of the long highways. But in some cities and areas there are narrower roads so more people drive manual there. Also, there are tons of driving enthusiasts here in America that know that manual is the only way to drive. My friend in Holland said that they also use manual to save gas because petrol is so expensive. I'd love to drive in Austria, awesome roads, beautiful scenery. Cheers

BigPapaSmurfy didn't approach you properly, but he is calling you out for insulting Americans. Insinuating they can't drive Automatics. Your response is a complete contradiction because you did the same thing to begin with, you both made a stereotype or generalization about a group of people. Do I detect Irony... Boy, boy, crazy boy! Stay loose, boy! Breeze it, buzz it, easy does it. Turn off the juice, boy! Go man, go, But not like a yo-yo schoolboy. Just play it cool, boy, Real cool!
