Ferrari Mailing List: Re: New Audi Supercar

At the Paris Auto Show from the Jalopnik.com website:

Jalopnik: So is the new R8 more precise than the Gallardo, as it is

Herr Doktor Martin Winterkorn: You'll have to drive them both and  
compare.

J: But is it more precise?

HDMW:: The Gallardo is the ultimate. Your wife. My wife. This is an  
Audi for our wives.
