Maybe maybe except the very obvious being PRACTICALITY!

If you want me to spell it out how F90 will be better than your Audi R8 2015, IMHO Steering, speed, tech, sound if modded right, dramatic mods impact, maintenance, creature comforts! Except handling and exotic bragging rights

So in a nutshell you'll love the F90 Comp but mod it heavily and right and get an exotic color!

If you had the Gen2 R8 I would have told you don't do it but 2015 not even a fair comparison, and I agree with Vic55 it's apples to oranges!

My 2 cents
Appreciate all the posts. Just to clarify that Both cars will be driven only in non-winter months up here in NY. Not to be used all 12 months. I have a winter rat that I drive (2004 4.4 X5 with 150k miles) I know I COULD drive both because of AWD available in both but it would kill me to drive either in the heavily salted roads. Has anyone driven the S-tronic V10 plus R8 to compare to the F90 M5 Comp.
Years 2014-2015. Not the gen 2
