New Audi Abt R8...

Just went on RSportscars.com and saw this new R8 on the homepage. It looks like Audi is really trying to tell Porsche whats up.

As of know Audi have 3 R8's
1.R8 V-8(std.)
2.R8 abt V-8
3.R8 V-12 TDI

Pretty sure ABT is a tuner right?

That would be like saying we have lots of different 911s

997 C2
997 C4
997 TT
Techart 997
Gemballa 997
etc...

"The fluently dynamic form of the car is unique, it looks like having a lot of power, even when standing still,"
Considering it is all bling and no extra beef, it sure will look like it is standing still compared to the GTRs, 997tts, Z06s flying past it at WOT

maybe it looks better in person. I love the look of the R8, but for some reason that just looks way too modified and not in a good way. Probably the color combo.

ABT is an aftermarket tuner just like Oettinger is for Audi. We have some ABT in stock and can import anything else.

ABT has a supercharger for the R8.
