Ok my friend let me elaborate something here:

Speaking about looks, feel , resale they are all dependents. I agree the handling of a small, light car must be better than M6, but I cannot say the superiority of R8 everywhere... Can you drive your R8 everyday, everywhere?

This shouldn't be a revelation to you or anyone else as the M6 is a 4400 lb cruiser and the R8 is a purpose built sports car.

Well I know a 2 seat 3700 lb R8 is 500 lb lighter than 4200 lb M6 GT car,... BTW I'm happy you finally admited R8 is sport car and not exotic car; however last time I called it entry exotic car that made you angry

In the real world on back roads and on the track, there is no way that 90% of drivers can keep up in their M6 with a R8 V10. Just as you pulled up the acceleration figures, I can pull up lap times such as C&D lightning lap, where the M6 does a lap in 3:04.7 and R8 V10 Plus in 2:57.5. Ring times by Sport Auto, M6 8:09 and R8 V10 7:44. So sure, the M6 is much faster if you are roll racing on the runway or at go to jail speeds on public roads. But in the real world there really is no comparison as they are no competitors to begin with anyhow.

well I have no idea where you found 8:09 time for F06/F12/F13M6!!!!
There is a report of 7:55 for M5 and hopefully you agree M6 is slightly faster than M5 so I believe it's something about 7:50-7:55...
And if you are talking about the real world, you can watch the following youtubes video where Randy Pobst drove both R8 V10+ and M6 the same day
2013 best driver's car Audi R8 V10+
2013 best driver's car BMW M6
The result shows over the Laguna Seca raceway, R8 V10+ ran 1:38.7 and M6 ran 1:40.5 .... I don't call 1.8 second difference "a lot better lap time" ...
There are many other lap time comparisons show the difference, but overall yes there is no doubt R8 V10+ is faster than M6 on racetrack... it's meant to be right? but the question is with 40-50k difference it worth? that's the question must be answered by individuals....

BTW, how about you actually post some thoughts on what my original post asked about instead of taking this thread off topic?

Back to topic I believe 26k off MSRP is a great deal. If I were you, I would go for it. What are the MF and Residual they offered you?
You can see the November rates here if it helps:
