The current R8 is one of my all time favorite manuals. Here is a leaked foto of the new R8. NA v10 and manual will make it one of the must haves Image Unavailable, Please Login
Why I'm not surprised about this foto? IMO audi has an acute design issue. No, I correct myself - more or less the entire VAG has a design issue. Of course, beauty lies in the eye of the beholder. But slowly it gets boring...
I am aware of that. My point was that possible reliability issues shouldn't be observed in manner "who cares if it breaks after first owner".
Better? http://bilder.wanted.de/b/72/92/89/68/id_72928968/tid_da/die-optik-des-audi-r8-ist-zurueckhaltend-es-sind-kaum-veraenderungen-zum-vorgaenger-auszumachen-dafuer-soll-er-perfekt-fahren-so-quattro-chef-heinz-hollerweger-.jpg http://bilder.wanted.de/b/72/92/93/60/id_72929360/tid_da/bei-der-hoechstgeschwindigkeit-zeigt-der-neue-audi-r8-sogar-dem-technik-bruder-lamborghini-huracan-die-ruecklichter-.jpg http://bilder.wanted.de/b/72/92/94/54/id_72929454/tid_da/bei-der-konstruktion-des-r8-wurden-audis-werkspiloten-mit-einbezogen-strassenversion-und-rennwagen-wurden-parallel-entwickelt-das-hat-technische-auswirkungen-beim-allradantrieb-verteilt-jetzt-eine.jpg http://bilder.wanted.de/b/72/92/96/84/id_72929684/tid_da/das-ist-zurueckzufuehren-auf-das-leichtbau-chassis-das-aus-einer-hybridbauweise-aus-aluminium-und-carbonteilen-besteht-.jpg
no matter how it will looks it will be winner because it's NA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GxZEmLsewE8
Yah and that wasn't what I said ; ) People got on the path of - oh when it does break. My point is that even if you are not the original owner you can currently extend the warranty 12 years beyond the 3-5 year standard warranty. Therefore, it should not be a barrier to buying into the car even if you believe the unfounded statements about turbo life.
Both R8 and 488 will be the winners but from different reasons , in my opinion 488 will be not so successful like 458
I'm really looking forward to this car...and pray its NA. But last I read it may get a flat eight with a quad turbo.
It will be more successful if you count unit sales. They will up production and there is no shortage of HNW individuals that will want one. Let's be honest boys...we are the 1% of the 1% of Ferrari owners. Most cars will never see the track...unless they have one at the local mall...
All I know that things are really heating up, so I assume Porsche could make some actions (they have all parts for so called 960). Even Aston Martin made very nice screaming toy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OT0PZpW-uUY
