QueenMDX ◊ 2024-03-16 17:19	They must both be the earliest appearances of the R8, no? Before Iron Man?
Gamer ◊ 2024-03-16 17:23	I checked another R8 in Portugal just to be sure, which I assumed was not a special vehicle for launch, and that too returned an '08: WUAZZZ4208N000580 (May 2007 registered)
