SciFrog:
But does it really matter how it happened? The damage is done, Audi flooded the market with almost new discounted cars. Good for the people like you who buys them, bad for the ones who paid close to MSRP before or after (if any). The R8 simply follows the depreciation pattern of modern high price sport cars except a very few somewhat limited cars...

 

Frankly speaking, I think Audi doesn't really care. They seem to have the liberty to experiment with their R8 distribution/service model over here in Germany and I didn't get the feeling that dealers get huge incentives to move those R8, unlike other cars like the RS6 or less expensive models.
