    Just little bit more time...
    You will be very pleased with specs!
    New AWD is simply awsome, NO wheelspins at all.
    BTW, this one in video is with finished interior.

    Re: New Audi R8 Video!

    Excellent video! Thanks. Unless I'm mistaken, it sounds like the V8 version.

    I hope the V10 version sounds like the Gallardo.

    I cannot decide which sounds better -- Gallardo SE or 355. Although I cringe when I think about the shoddy perceived build quality of the 355.

    Re: New Audi R8 Video!

    Yet another supercar with an aggressive sounding exhaust. What was Porsche thinking when they castrated the 997TT?

    Btw, the more I see of the R8, the better I like it. It is a very sexy looking car.

    Very nice brown matt paint - very special indeed.

    Very nice video BTW.

    EDIT: And another thing, anybody noticed? I think they've changed the headlights a little bit (near the fender), looks much better and more aggressive now!

    Re: New Audi R8 Video!

    mmm... looks good. I look forward to seeing the final car without the camo. Glad I got on the list early.

    When will Audi officially release info. Is it worth hassling the dealer to get early info?

    Re: New Audi R8 Video!

    I just can't bring myself to like the sound of it. It's kinda punchy like the AMV8 but it just doesn't do it for me. I hope that was the V8 and the V10 sounds completely different. This is getting interesting though.

    Thank you, VGA18. Your exhaust sounds more refined than the SE on this video:

    Do the flames indicate a problem?

    I love the sound on this video especially the hair-raising downshifts:

    Well then, please submit a video of the Hamann exhaust while driving just like this video:

    By the way, do you know what the story is behind this video below -- was it a dangerous prank created by the people filming it?

    Sure.. I will add soon maybe a 1-2 weeks later.

    For the bump video i dunno exactly but i ve been told that the municipality decided to put that bump without telling it. People always do fast fly-bys there. So they did that to stop people going fast. And the solution is that.

    But i am not sure i ve been told like that.
    BTW the guys are having so much fun. And the Lambo after airborne is still going fast. You can hear its sound after jump

    Man, I love this car

    Listen to the gearshifts in this video, especially when he takes off starting at 1:30 in the video, that does not sound like a manual gearbox to me...
