Popular Post Dan.G 165 Posted September 7, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 7, 2018 After looking at GTRs, 911s, V10 R8, 350 sport... the list goes on.. I have finally placed my deposit on a 2018 pewter grey 380. I can't believe I've just blown that money on a car but hey, we only live once! My reasons going for an exige 380 are as such: Hardly see any on the road. Rare car. The driving experience was second to none, the feel of the drive got under my skin, it was electric. The sound it makes. The looks, extreme and looks like a super car. Running costs, compared to others in class, tyres, brakes, servicing etc, is relatively cheap. Oh and this one has the Nitron kit. I have a few plans for the car, to make it my own, so watch this space. I live on the West Norfolk coast, hopefully see you on the roads and at meets. Dan 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Edinburgh 111s 101 Posted September 8, 2018 Report Share Posted September 8, 2018 Congrats on the purchase. You’re right, you only live once! And compared to most marques the depreciation isn’t eye watering. I like the colour coded rear end. Very different enjoy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KennyN 218 Posted September 9, 2018 Report Share Posted September 9, 2018 Congrats! Enjoy I've seen a few similarly coloured Audis that have done nothing for me, but the colour combination looks particularly mean on an Exige. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
