Great video! I had to watch the whole thing. Those R8 audio settings were a bit strange.

But what an awesome car! Gorgeous! Powerful! Different from the brutal ZR1, but does it really get much better than the R8 V10? I know which one I'D choose! :)

Actually Jeremy Clarkson loves just about every Ford that comes out. Can't hold it against him for laughing at the build quality of the ZR1, it fell apart while he was testing it. It's just a poorly built car.

It really makes you think if Jeremy Clarkston was just throwing the corvette around the course on purpose because when the stig ran both at the track, the Audi R8 V10 was the one flopping all around the course and the corvette ZR1 was stable and a few seconds faster haha...

I just wish American build quality would be top notch like the Germans so we do not get bashed on.
