AUDI R8 4.2 FSI QUATTRO R TRONIC

Audi-R8-V12-TDI-Live.jpg

WHY IT'S ON OUR HIT PARADE: We'd love it for design bravura alone, but the R8 runs like a Wall Street profiteer, carves turns with the finesse of Michelangelo working marble, and treats its two occupants to the velvet touch of a Golden Door Spa.

COOL FACT: Actor Alex Rocco, who awoke to find a bloody luxocar grille sharing his bed in 2008's famous R8 Super Bowl commercial, played Moe Greene in the ad's inspiration, 1972's "The Godfather."

SUM UP: The Area 51 supercar.
