I would choose the Audi R8.
Audi R8: Top speed is 187mph. 0-60 in 4.4 seconds. AWD
Aston V8: Top speed is 175mph. 0-60 in 4.9 seconds. RWD.
The Aston is much heavier.

The Audi gets more gas mileage, but I'd have to go with the Aston Martin because its faster on topend.

they both have waiting lists.

audi has the quattro awd, which is necessarily for the weather conditions i face.

also it's design is so far in advance, no one will catch up to it.

u can see the engine thru the window.

its a mid engine.

its a high revving v8.

the interior is much better from what i saw from pictures.

and its german engineered.

the only plus about the aston martin is the name.
and its being hand built.

both are very rare.

i'd go with the audi r8.
