Just in: R8 facelift happens this year, don't know when. A bit more power (20-30 hp), some minor(!) design mods (no major overhaul), maybe some touch controls from new A8.

The good part: It sticks to the V10 engine.

The bad part: It seems this is the last R8...ever. Nobody seems to believe that there is going to be a next generation car, it seems that Audi wants to leave the sportscar market to Lamborghini. There is no definitive word yet but everything indicates that the R8 is done.
