    I agree, I think it is manual.

    Re: New Audi R8 Video!

    Looks like they have changed the design of the rear lights lately, doesn't go all the way out to the edge of the fender anymore. Old on top, new below.

    Re: New Audi R8 Video!

    Yes, it does go all the way to the edges, they are using red tape to cover it! BTW, rear lights on new pics are the final one.

    This is the current Audi-design for their rear lights. Just compare to those of the new TT, looks exactly the same!

    We probably mean the same KresoF1
    I'm thinking about the silver strip that has made an appearance on the latest photos, here indicated by the blue arrow.

    But I guess I will find out for real on friday

    Re: New Audi R8 Video!

    Those "Silver strip" are actually reverse gear LEDs! Rear lights of R8 use the same elements as new TT lights just in different design...

    Re: New Audi R8 Video!

    Is it going to be faster than any stock 996 TT tiptronic

    Re: New Audi R8 Video!

    You're right, as usual, KresoF1. You can see it in the video, at about 1:00 when it reverses into a parking space.
    Why didn't I notice that before

    The best video yet! Recorded in USA... Can wait to get my R8!



    hey Kreso,

    according to the new AMS the R8 will not be availble with DSG or automated, only manual. do you know any different? cheers

    Re: New Audi R8 Video!

    Yes, I also got I chance to read article in new AMS.
    True, new R8 will be available as manual only until new 7speed S-Tronic(DSG) is ready(early 2008). But, IMO it is not a bad thing. R8 is a true sportscar, not some kind of GT Coupe. And too many people are simply forgetting that S-Tronic(DSG) is closer in character to Tiptronic autobox then to manual...

    Yeah right, R8 is no GT Coupé like SL55, DB9, Continental GT or ...



    ... 997tt.

    Yes, it's more likely to be a prissy, softie car, such as those overhyped 430s .

    If you call the F430 a softie car, I guess you are a lookalike of the incredible Hulk.

    Well, I always thought you are a little bit "green".

    Re: New Audi R8 Video!

    pity, I would have preferred an electronic shifting system for this modern car. it would have given it an advantage on the Ps of this world...

    I only turn green when one of these prissy cars rolls by. Then I get angry and crush it to bits. And after that, I take it to the recycling bin , to save the planet and protect the atmosphere from spontaneous combusting Ferraris. If everybody were like me, there'd be no more global warming .
