Audi R8

This car puts Audi on the Supercar map and is the most anticipated car of 2007.

Named after the Le Mans winning Audi racecar, this car boasts a lighweight aluminium frame, Quattro four-wheel drive and a 420 HP V8. Like practically no other sports car the R8 offers the feeling of direct control over almost limitless power. A dry sump version of the RS4's engine is used which allows Audi to push the engine lower to the ground, while the two-step direct injection provides for more power and better fuel economy.

Its close relationship with design studies like the Audi quattro spyder and the Le Mans quattro are unmistakable. Its sporty, slimline single-frame is flanked by distinctive headlights.

Despite being only available in limited numbers in Australia, the Club has secured 2 of the first release of R8 Supercars. You have to try this car.
