After talking to some very knowledgeable car guys, the R8 cracked frame thing is completely overblown by a couple YouTube videos and car forums... says it happened to less then 1% of the R8's on the road and there was a total of four reported to the NTHSB between 2009-11
The biggest issue is the AC compressor and the expensive fix.
Gated R8 might be the car to get next while waiting for the C8 ....
I think those have hit bottom of the depreciation curve and might be a good time to find a good deal on one.
We'll see ..... I think the C8 is going to depress a lot of car values very soon if not already.
