I have one of these R8s. It had been on my short list for a while. I was at the toy store one day getting ready to buy a 327 Night Guard when the store owner asked me if I wanted a R8 because he was getting one in. I told him to put my name on it. I bought the Night Guard as well. One expensive visit. But I do love the R8! I may put some Ahrends on it if I can find a really dark set.
