Rossi:Unbelievable, but they made things worse.
Yep...unbelievable. They destroyed the clean line of the R8, I hope they don't do the same with the Huracan.
The facelifted R8 actually looks now a little bit like the TT from the front.
I know that such a car needs to be seen live but even live, it doesn't look much better. Also, now the car seems to be color sensitive.

From Iain's pics I expect the worst...
We're at the point where you can be the fastest or just sound like you're the fastest.
The secret of life is to admire without desiring.

KresoF1:Rossi:Does it have the particulate filter?
--Of course.
So tell me more about the sound.

Congratulations RC, you now have a classic
2017 Range Rover Sport S/C, 2009 Porsche 911S
Have to agree with 4trac, yes now I have a classic too. But anyhow since my R8 is not a lease it is/was always a classic once i bought it! Or perhaps since this facelift, is lets but nicely, a bit akward the pre-face lift cars go up in value. (hahaha )
KresoF1:Rossi:KresoF1:Rossi:Does it have the particulate filter?
--Of course.
So tell me more about the sound.Belive it or not-almost the same! Still very aggressive.
Nope, sound is not the same. The sound in the video is "fake". 😟

KresoF1:So, exhaust sound in the studio where they recorded new R8 Performance is fake?
This was the sound INSIDE, even our Evoque sounds nice inside a closed room.
The new R8 doesn't sound that good outside (track video), they used the sound from inside the car, which is apparently a bit generated by some kind of sound symposer.
There is also a reason why the exhaust pipes look that weird, there was no room for the particulate filter, so...
Also, no more exhaust button, sound only changes with specific driving program.

SciFrog:In real life it probably will not look very different...
It looks very different I'm afraid but I don't like it. Only in black and with carbon/black side blades, the cars look similar.

the-missile:Upsa:Time for RC to get a raging bull
His car is the best. not the newer version till he can lease one.
Of course...I drive a V10, not a crappy 6-cyl. Boxer.
I can lease the new one, what's your point? I don't want it. Maybe the Spyder Performance would be interesting in a couple of years but I still have my eyes on the Performante.
