Top 15 Cars That Get All The Girls
12. Audi R8
Like many sports cars on this list, the Audi R8 started life as a high-performance race car before making the leap to the commercial market.
The Audi R8 Le Mans Prototype is one of the most successful race car models of all time, winning the 24 Hours of Le Mans race five of the seven times it competed.
It also won the American Le Mans series in an unbroken six year streak from 2000 to 2006, firmly establishing the model as one of the most dominant cars ever to hit the track.
Not an ounce of that technology was wasted in the transition. The commercial Audi R8 received some of the best reviews of any car ever. Evo Magazine insisted the vehicle stood to inherit the title of world’s greatest sports car from Porsche, saying “a new dawn starts today.”
Other reviewers praised the uncannily smooth ride and the unmatched ease of its handling even at high speeds. It outperformed models by both Aston Martin and Lamborghini when used on the popular car show Top Gear, with the hosts claiming that it “rewards driver input” in a fantastic way. For car buffs, an Audi R8 is a must-have piece of machinery.
