[Video]AUDI R8 VS PORSCHE 997 TURBO VS ASTON MARTIN V8 VANTAGE
This is a really cool comparison test. They take these super cars and give some tests and find out which is the best car overall. I like all three but I would take the Audi R8 over all of them. Once the Audi R8 V10 comes out, then it’ll blow the other cars out of competition. I mean come on look at those headlights, this has to be the sexiest car. What would you take?

Kobe Bryant jumps over moving Aston Martin
No,Kobe did not jeopardize the lakers future with this commercial. This is not real but sure does look real. To hype up Kobes new shoes, Nike made this commercial where an Aston Martin goes right at Kobe Bryant who jumps over it, in his new light weight shoes. And for those asking if this is still real,Kobe told a local newspaper "Hollywood Baby" when asked how he did it. Kobe did really jump that high though, to me it looks like the Aston Martin drove by his side. You be the judge, What do you think?
