100 this year and 500 for '08 is what I was told. My #3 spot should be arriving in the spring.

Default Re: Actual number of units for 2007 is........

The actual number of R8 units for 2007 is 300 units, up from the original 200 due to US demand and Audi readjusting the global allocations. 2008 US production is projected at 800-1,000 units.

Default Find a 'stealership' with Magic R8 allocations for people that are coming late to the party

sorry, but cripes- 200 or 300... it's not going to matter to folks that arent pretty high on an actual R8 dealers' list.

Rant over, had to go there.
