R8 V10 Roadtrip x Cadillac CTS-V2

My brother-in-law traded in his R35 GT-R for a 1st-gen Audi R8 V10. It fell to me to get proper pictures for him, but I didn't want to just stand around a parking lot, so we did a 2 days trip centered around the famous rock pools of Botanical Beach and Victoria, BC.

Yeah, he offered to switch cars for a stint... but I passed, because as you mentioned it is unfortunately an R-Tronic. He does know how to drive a manual, but as his previous weekend car was an R35 GT-R (DCT only) and the daily is a BMW F16 X6 (8AT only), I don't think it occurred to him to look for one with the gated manual.

As for mine, OF COURSE it is 1/1200 with the TR6060 6MT

Nice pics and great cars!

A buddy of mine has a CTS-V wagon that is manual with no sunroof. Quite a rare car indeed.

Another buddy of mine who has car ADHD had a first gen V8 manual R8 with a nice exhaust. He traded it for a hot minute on a 911TT (991) and then for a 2015 GT3. Now he has a McLaren 570S! All within the last year.

I neglected to say he actually had two 911 GT3's. Both were 2015's. The first one was white and the second one was silver with a few more options. He had each of them for about 2 months
