OK, so I've been waiting to post until it arrived. It's been here two days and I love this thing. Lot more drivable on a daily basis then the F430 spyder I had but definitely more ferocious then the V8 R8 I had for a few months a year or so ago. Here's some horrible shots. Oh and before folks ask, I got all the carbon fiber options (blades, mirror, front lip, rear diffuser, interior, engine area, even the door sills) and the titanium wheels because I'm not a fan of the new Y spoke wheel. I love the LED Headlamps. The LED strip is uh interesting i'll say but the Headlamps are wicked.


Jeez, they could've at least dusted it before putting it on the truck


LOVE the lip




Finally, track day was today! Was still in break in period but did get to take a scuderia out for a few laps.



OK who brought the Audi?!?

 

Terrible pictures. All kidding aside, that's a BEAUTIFUL piece of automobile engineering! I love the pictures of the car at the Marina. I used to play volleyball there.

Congratulations. Would love to see more pictures of the V10 R8.

 

Congrats!!!
Beautiful! Ditto on the pics

 

dude, get a real camera!





JK congrats!!!

 

very cool! looks great~~

 

stunning car!

 

Beautiful Car, Best of luck with it.

Love the Carbon Fiber!!

Now lower that beast!!!!!!!!!

Ice

 

I do have a real camera but all I had on me was my phone at the time! I'll take decent shots and put em up at some point. Just a tad busy right now. . . driving

 

Congrats on the new ride!!

I did 40 laps at Infineon 3 weeks ago in the V10 R8 and I was nothing but smiles!! Such an easy car to drive fast.

 

Great looking car, have you driven an LP560 or GT2 to compare? I'm kind of cross shopping the three. Did you get the R8 at MSRP or under?

 

That's a dilemma that I would love to be in

 

congrats. I have a friend that has one and is really enjoying it. Have fun!!

 

Does anyone have a link to a dyno chart of the Audi R8 V10? I want to compare it with a Lambo.

 

Congrats, enjoy it in good health!

 

I have actually driven a lp-560, it is very similar. One is more visceral (Lambo) while one is more drivable (audi). I would say it would depend on what you planned on doing with the car. If you plan on driving it on the rare weekend or only on Saturday's or something, you might want to steer towards the Lambo as it is a beast and lets you know it. The control is far twitchier and the car itself is loud and slightly obnoxious (ok maybe a tad more than slightly). But it's still a very nice design and there are cool gadgets like the nose will lift by a few inches so you can get in the gas station driveway without scraping. THere's also annoying things about the lambo, for example, you sit there at say 4k rpm it will sporadically open up the flaps and go BRAAAUGGHHH, for no reason whatsoever. This is a bit annoying to be honest but at least it's a beautiful sound. The Audi doesn't sound better but is much more of a car you do anything with. Go to the Grocery? Go right ahead. It's also not horrifically loud. That being said, it's plenty loud and the v10 is a very different car then the V8 which could literally be a daily driver. The V10 has the acceleration of the 430 but not the crankiness of the rear wheel car. In other words, it's a bit more muscly without getting out of control. Oh, I don't drive Porsche's by the way, just never been a fan.
