I had heard through my wife who works for the cancer society she was told by someone in chch about this offer? I dont know this mike and i to be honest think that a club that turns down an offer to help out such a deserving cause as the cancer society stinks. Do you have anymore information on this? Yes, I do, but sorry, I dont think I need to divulge that info on this forum.

well id definately go for the R8. it looks more of a beast in the tail light region. the gts has the wrap around the rear quarter tail lights like the sv6 sv8s doesnt it?

I really envy your position, gee what a dilemma! Personally I would go for the R8 for long term resale value. Although as stated in an earlier post, I would want to be sure that your really getting what you pay for. I always prefer to buy privately as apposed to dealers, as their prices tend to be a bit inflated. Perhaps to be safe you should leave the final decision to your good lady, in which case it will probably come down to colour
