I'm not a fan of red cars usually. But I think red looks exceptionally good on the R8.

how much?

bavarian19 · 03-04-2008, 06:30 PM

That car needed more than just a V8. Nothing wrong with the R8, but it was begging for more power.

Dammmittt · 03-04-2008, 06:43 PM

Sexy as hell. Now it's as fast as it looks.

Agree. And it really shines with the extra edginess the sharper styling features provide.

We will have to see what the M10 comes out like. Audi sure has upped the bar.

EJ2000 · 03-04-2008, 08:45 PM

Now I usually appreciate many of the cars posted in this section....

but I am not a fan at all. For people who thought the regular R8 was overstyled, I can't wait to hear what they say about this car. Could it have any more mesh on the front or rear? IMO, it takes away a lot of the beautiful form and curves that the R8 (V8) has....

This car is pure freakin sex in red. I wasn't much of a fan when we saw it a couple months ago in silver.

That lower end of the front is really horrible looking though. It just kinda...kinda stops...looks really unprofessional.

I'm a fan of it because I know it's just the concept. We have seen spypics of the R8 V10 and it doesnt have the stupid flat-ended front bumper. Instead it has less slats in the front/rear vents, better exhausts, bigger side intake, new side skirts, and I'm sure there will be new wheels. It looks cleaner yet more aggressive.

That brings us to the R8 V12. I'm sure there will be a production model because Audi is moving forward with diesel power. They have just released the TT TDi and the new Q7 V12 TDi...

I think the production model of this will have everything the concept has but will lose the weird front bumper and will have one more like the R8 but with a front lip/spoiler like the RS6 has OR keep the flat bottom design, but make it more acceptable like the TT-S and make it bodycoloured. The honeycomb grille will stay and I think overall it'll just be tamed down a little. I hope them wheels stay too.

I'll try make chops of possible production models
