All-Star Cars: Yet Another Reason to Hate Tom Brady

Posted October 8th, 2010 in Chatter by Matt

Admit it.  You’re jealous of Tom Brady.

As if winning multiple Super Bowls and being QB for the Patriots wasn’t enough, the guy had to go ahead and marry your favorite supermodel, Gisele.

Sorry to disappoint, but Tom Brady’s life is even sweeter than you thought. When he’s not on the gridiron or hanging out with his stunning wife, he gets to drive free luxury vehicles from Audi through a sponsorship deal the automaker has with Brady’s favorite charity, Best Buddies.

After crashing his VIP loaner in September, Mr. Brady’s newest runabout is the striking 2011 Audi A8, an $80,000 luxury sedan that’s so advanced it can literally read your handwriting. Yes, really.

The weekend car is better yet.  It’s Audi’s exotic R8 sports car – the same speedster that Robert Downey Jr. piloted as Tony Stark in Iron Man.  The R8 looks like it’s from another planet and can run from 0-60 in 4.4 seconds if you can afford the $115,000 price tag.

If you can’t secure an endorsement deal of your own, you can get nearly all the style of Mr. Brady’s wild rides for thousands less if you know where to shop.  Instead of the ultra-luxe A8, shoot for the baby brother Audi A4, which offers similar style in a smaller package. In lieu of the R8 exotic, you can get your kicks in the very handsome 354-horsepower S5 coupe.

And if all else fails, I hear that Bridget Moynahan is still single.
