When will dealers be taking order's for an R8 in USA? And is there a waiting list? Thanks!!

 

I'm sure dealers are taking deposits to get on the list. Just contact your local Audi dealer...

 

I used to be the first on the list at Premier Audi in New Mexico... pulled away after they overpriced it. Its too bad, its a gorgeous car. For that price, it should have a v10 in it.

 

yes you can.

 

Get in contact with your dealer, it's no problem.

Just make sure that your dealer is actually legit and has the ability to get the car. I know a lot of dealers who talk but when it comes down it, can't follow through. A reputable dealer would have no problem getting the one you want. But judging by your sig, it looks like you know a thing or two about buying cars

 

Champion Audi ( Coral Springs, Florida) has 50 orders and I was told it will take 2 years to get a car...starting now.

 

wow... forget it. Im sure its going to be priced way over sticker anyways... thanks guys!

 

Wow - that's crazy. Hopefully that's just some of the pre-launch hype and excitement. I would think 6 months to a year from now it's a different story.

 

I'm pretty sure I could get near the top of my local dealership's list and not pay over sticker for about $10K deposit.

 

hi guys
i run Life Quality Audi
i dont know what some sales people are telling you, but official numbers for the R8 will be somewhere around ~220 units the first year.
most dealerships will be lucky if they can get allocation for it.
more than likely, if they can even get you a car, they will have a premium on it

my dealership only has an allocation for one car, and i had the deposit for 18 months now from one of our repeat customers.
i also have one of my customers/friend who literally has 4 A8s in his stable. a murci, a gt2 and a gt, an s4, a q7, a maybach, a g55, and i think a gallardo spyder who also wants one for his sons graduation present.

i can only get one car, and im not going to do the typical thing and charge over sticker. ill probably have to pay another dealer a premium to swap in an R8 or something along those lines.

 

We are not sure if we are going to get an allocation but we have a deposit to hold the spot if we do get one.

 

There is a rumor that only 20 dealers are going to be allowed to sell them. It requires a 6 figure investment by the dealer to get their staff and equipment up to speed.

 

Audi Mission Viejo (CA) has a few deposits...

 

And my uncle has one of those
