Dylan Bruder Oct 10, 2012

Whatever it is, it looks good.

Paul Pickard Oct 10, 2012
This is one of the best looking examples of the R8 so far.

I love the color combo.

Bobby Junior Oct 11, 2012
Gunter, have you made a single positive comment on this entire app?

Alex Renaud Oct 10, 2012
This thing is riding lower than Danny DeVito sitting in a ditch.

Tobias Mersinger Oct 10, 2012
Whatever, this looks awesome!

Jack Paeglow Oct 10, 2012
I agree with Carlos. I don't think this is the work of Audi.

Carlos Ernesto Garcia Oct 10, 2012
Is it possible that its just a tuned 2013 R8?

Jesus that's long. maybe the photo was stretched or something

Philipp Kentner Oct 10, 2012
Yea it looks pretty long in this picture

Dillon Dixon Oct 10, 2012
Maybe it's just me, but the wheelbase looks long in this pic. I'm probably just seeing things.

I agree. Looks like something a 12 year would do to an R8 on Need for Speed

John Garcia Oct 10, 2012
I'm loving the car but am I the only one not totally diggin the rims? Not really saying they're bad but they're just not clicking with me

Disregard that it's the same idk why I thought the gt had slats across

Ryan Rainville Oct 10, 2012
It also has a different rear fascia than the gt the gt does not have a solid body section were the licsence plate is its slays all the way across or a grill type thing I can't remember

Dean Kaitson Oct 10, 2012
I love how it's off the ground

Michael Dunn Oct 10, 2012
@Bradley the R8 GT has round exhaust pipes too and the V12 will probably not go into production; anyways this is just a tuned R8 GT.

Tim Puckett Oct 10, 2012
@Bradley what are you talking about there is no v12 r8

Bradley Masonn Oct 10, 2012
If its got round exhausts then it's a v12 if it has oval ones then it's a v10

Jeremy Russell Oct 10, 2012
The exhaust is what the r8 gt already sports

Stephen Cobbs Oct 10, 2012
Newer model because of the exhaust Im thinkin.

Yeah I'm thinking this is just some guy's car. It even has a regular plate and that paint job does not say Audi.
