I purchased this Audi R8 from Sur Motor Cars in 2016.   They sell salvaged title cars that run.   It had hood, windshield, front trunk, radiator, grill damage.   The car was still running smoothly.   I purchased it immediately since its a easy fix. Didn't understand why it was salvaged.   A few minutes after I paid, another customer came in and offered me $8000.00 dollars more. I didn't sell it since,  I was planning to keep it.   Now Bluefin fishing during the season, so too much boat maintenance so no time to drive car. R8 has new tires only 50 miles. I have put on 8000 miles since I purchased the car.   Garage kept. All original paint except the hood I purchased was dented on drivers side. The shade is a bit off in the sun.   The car was featured in PacSun/Playboy advertising in Playboy logo wrapped.   I took it off immediately after the shoot.

It drives like a stock Audi R8. Awesome! No problems.   I have extra wheels with tires that are 15/52 with wider tires. (see 2018 PacSun/Playboy photos) Wheels and Bilstein shocks purchased from a display car from SEMA Las Vegas car show in 2017.   I currently drive with the stock rims on with the new tires since the others get too much attention. Enclosed you will find pictures of the car with the imperfections.   Wrapping it hides everything. But that's up to you. To me it's nice as is. Interior is all original except it has a CD Changer and sound system.   I never used it.
