Performance GT coupe driven to Alaska

Hi guys,
I know it is not about the LC 500 specifically but I thought those who enjoy long range road trips might enjoy this. Audi R8 driven from Ohio to Alaska.

I flew to Portland, Oregon to buy my LC and drove it back to my home-town of Jersey city, NJ. So like......4500ish miles haha not quite 10k but still a long drive!

it was fantastic. Stopped in SD to see Mount Rushmore. Car was super stable and planted on the highway (obviously haha), and i got around low 30s mpg the entire time.

That’s 10k miles more than my entire year of driving the LC500.
