I agree. Let's see if they measured R8 or not and if they did how will it compare against such a established class leaders as F430 and 997 turbo.
If R8 do not end third in this comparison test then Audi marketing department could start a small celebration IMHO...
BTW, do not forget:
-997 turbo Supertest in this Friday's Sport Auto
and
-next Wednesday full test of R8 in AMS

Let me say R8 AMS test 0-100kmh 4.0 second 0-200kmh 13.0 second. But i really wonder 997TT supertest. What was the Hockenheim and Ring time??????
Lol JK kidding.
Seriously R8 Zeitung test would be a good comparison however i think R8 vs CarreraS/4S would be better

Most probably it won't be a real test, but at least we can enjoy the pictures, which are always nice in Autozeitung.
BTW, I think they've chosen the wrong competitors with the F430 and the Turbo. These cars are not in the same league.

Kreso asked me to post some numbers from the test.
As I don't have the magazine with me at the moment, this is what I recall, so don't nail me down on it.
F430 F1 was 3.8 sec to 100 km/h and 12.2 sec to 200 km/h.
For the turbo, which was a tiptronic, the numbers were 3.9 sec and 12.3 sec respectively.
R8 performed in 4.5 sec (not sure about that) and 15.2 sec.

Official numbers are:
0-100km/h: 4.6s
0-200km/h:14.9s
Weight: 1560kg
So, Auto Zeitung numbers are almost at factory level...
BTW, do you remember the weight for R8 in AZ?
