| ^^ But it pretty much boils down to the same list of cars I made right? That would make an Enzo an exotic and 599 a supercar. I agree with this for sure. That would mean R8 V10 is a sportscar. R8 V10 0-100 time means not much in 2009 imo. Not a hard time to achieve anymore like it was in the '90s. If that makes it as super car than the 911 Turbo's 3.4 seconds 0-100 km/h makes it what? An exotic? And 911 Turbo is not even a supercar  A new 911 Turbo (sportscar in our list) is about as fast as an Enzo (exotic in our list) in 0-100 times. So pretty meaningless, because an Enzo kills a 911 Turbo in everything else....

| hahahaha this is soooooooooooooo funny!! Ironically, if you look at it, nowadays Audi actually posses the more sportier image in comparison to BMW.

| ^^ IMO: S4>335 RS6>M5 Q5>X3 RS4 might not be as good as the M3 but it was an excellent alternative R8> * just my opinion of course.

...and the way I see it: M3>S4 335i>A4 3.2 (this because the oposite view is also possible.) M5>RS6 (RS6 faster, M5 the more sporty) Q5 and X3, what the f***, these cars have nothing at all to do with sporty behaviour. R8, BMW has no chance at all, all it can throw in is the BMW and that is about half the price.

The only criticism I have for this R8 owner is that he flopped up with the badge  should have been 840xi

Only the R8 maybe, all normal BMW models are sportier than Audis
