Audi R8

Spotted this modded Audi R8 in the wild yesterday. Horrible color. I've always really liked these. Naturally aspirated 5.2-liter V10, Quattro AWD and Lamborghini Huracan DNA. Seemingly excellent value. A mid-engine V10 exotic for roughly the price of a well-equipped new luxury SUV.

And unlike a lot of exotics, the R8 was designed to be genuinely usable/daily driver.

What’s the best exotic-car value right now?

Here's a good video overview of the R8. They make a lot of comments about how easy it is to drive and that it's not scary and in comfort mode, it's actually pleasant on the road. Usability is definitely a key feature here. So many other cars in the class seem like they're built for the track only.
