Plus every mod on a R8 keeps the car covered under warranty. The $25K Stassis Supercharger for the V10 bumps power up to 710HP-730HP and if any problems arise, either Audi or Stassis will cover them to be corrected at an Audi dealership.

better looking is a opinion. I don't like the look of the R8. its a pretty car but its just another audi.
better built: probably though I don't have a R8 to compare it to.
better interior: opinions are different but I prefer the GT-R's look. the only complaint I have is that some of the buttons feel cheap.
maintenance: Don't know how expensive it is to maintain a R8 but the GT-R isn't that expensive to maintain. we had what? 2 oil changes.
+ you have to compare the price too.
a R8 is WAY more expensive. with the money you pay extra you could pay for parts and maintenance for the GT-R for years to come.
and meh warranty. depends on the dealership. our dealership is completely fine with mods like exhausts,intakes,intercoolers,dumpvalves and so on.
the only thing they take away warranty for is if you do something like working on the internals of the engine. increasing the 3.8 to say 4.5 and completely reinforcing the engine. but other than that they don't mind.
