Hey simonsays,
a) the people who will buy this car are not interested in having the fastest or most powerful car on the road. Instead, they like latest technology, safety of AWD, the nicest interior in any sports car and the prestige of owning a (fairly) limited edition piece of machinery.
b) The 4.2L V8 is the mid-level engine. Wait till you see the V10 with (rumored) twin turbos, pushing north of 550hp. Anyways, the 420hp is more than enough in such a small and light car.
c) This is a much more civilized car than the awesome but not very user-friendly Gallardo.
d) In case you did not know, Audi will take on the Lambo with the V10 version, as they seem hell-bent on having a car for every niche of the market, which pisses some of the companies from the WAG off.
e) I think you need to drive the car before you call it a "pile of junk".

Saw an R8 in the flesh today here near Lake Las Vegas, all I can say is WOW, the front 3/4 view reminded me of a Ferrari F430, very hot, plus the V8 makes a really nice growl on acceleration. Hope this link works...

the more I want this car. Only the blade detracts from the overall appearance, but the rest of it is so delicious that I can overlook the blade.
 
I don't get pumped up about entries in the "supercar" segment very often, but this is one that fosters serious lust factor for me.
 
Now, how to explain to the Mrs. that we're moving to a mobile home...
