Thanks for your wishes, guys.
Here is a short video I made, nothing special, I try to make something nicer once I have the car permanently and find some time to drive it for a longer period of time.
For now, this has to suffice:

As you can see, the car is pretty fast in the upper speed range and the 7th gear is not for fuel consumption but a real driving gear. Top speed of 330 kph (205 mph) is reached somewhere around 8500 rpm or so...I think.
According to my GPS, the speedo error at 330 kph is 8 kph (so it displays 338 kph instead of 330).
Did some 0-300 kph (actually 0-200 kph and then 200 to 300 kph because of traffic) testing and the results are amazing.
0-200 kph in 8.9 seconds (driver only though and fuel tank was only 1/3), 0-300 kph in 27.6 seconds. 0-100 kph time was not very accurate, don't know why...came up with results between 2.7 and 3.5 seconds, which cannot be right.
Car is in a very good shape though, this is for sure. A friend trying to follow in his Carrera GT wasn't successful and the difference was bigger than any of us anticipated (up to 300+ kph).
No matter how accurate these GPS numbers are, the R8 V10 Plus is fast and plays in a big boys league. Not in the 918, P1, LaFerrari or even 675LT league but still...very nice.
