Hmmm Michael has some sense... Anyone ever seen a GT-R? We own one and that is honestly the only way you could really comprehend this monstrous car... And it may be a heavy car but u can't argue with a 0-60 of 2.9 seconds...
Mathew never said they took weight off the GTR. He said they add 90 hp. The GtR costs less and could waist both of these cars
are they trying to say with the "highly strung nature" that the car is meant or bitches? lmao jkjk
Matthew the GT-R never lost any weight. The at is still a brick. Lightening a car's weight helps it in speed and handling.
Right so let me get this straight... Audi in 2 years are going to reduce weight by 24kg and only add a tiny amount of power?? Is that it!?! Nissan added almost 90hp to the GTR In 2 years and reduced the 0-60 by 0.3 seconds which is alot in car terms
Joey i know it's crazy to have a lighter and more powerful super car. Under powered and heavy is the way to go ! Lol
Agreed Chris!!! My fav supercar hands down. I've even seen one drive down my street. :)
This is way cheaper then a gallardo and a better drivers car so i would take this
id take a gallardo over this anyday even though this is a really nice car
this is actually audis own car this is just a quicker version from the r8 and the r8 is going to looks way different in 2014

Oh nvm I see what your saying. Audi just needs to turbo charge the cars not put a bigger heavier engine in them. thats not ideal
Its just amazing how a sedan like the RS6 is faster than the R8 V8, so they should place the 5.0 V10 into the R8 model range, modify the engine from being front engined to a mid engine and use the R8 GT's body so its light and ver fast
The 458 scuderia will be the best supercar ever to exist if its anything like the 430 scuderia
I think they should offer a twin turbo model, that would pull it way deeper into the ranks of supercars.
Running scared because the Acura NSX will be getting all the attention when it comes out.

I saw an Audi R8 spyder about a year ago. Trust me... Nothing about that car blends in!
Matt if you think this looks old how can you not think a supra looks disgusting haha this is gorgeous
Ok so it might not be as shouty as a lamborghini, but when you see one if those in traffic it does NOT blend in
Its not meant to stick out and be all shouty like a lambo its meant to blend in
Honestly i hope this car is something different when they do the redesign because I've seen so much of it that it doesn't interest me anymore
Cian was right. Porsche owns vw group which own Audi, Lamborghini and Bugatti.
Wrong dude, Vw owns all the ones you said and 49.9% of Porsche. Vw owns everybody, cleared now
Fordfan what are you disagreeing with? We own a GT-R and its amazing and even though it weighs 1.75tonnes it'll still do 0-60 in 3.0 seconds dead... Where exactly does the R8 keep up? We drive a charity track day every year and no R8's ever keep up..
You hear that, Iron Man? It's LIGHTER and FASTER. The only thing that Acura can do is drive Seinfeld insane. So It's decision time, bro. This German sex machine? Or being second to Jay Leno? Think about it.
Thank God Carbuzz posted this. I was under the impression the new R8 would weigh thousands of pounds more, and have an engine from a '33 Beetle.
Please say AWD instead of 4WD, they're two different drivetrains
I'm sorry, but there is no way a V6, 4WD car that looks like it could just be an average sports car is cooler than one of the arguably best looking supercars in recent years
To be honest I think Audi should try and compete with the GT-R which is much faster, half the price and (if I may, cooler)... The R8 has depreciated in value so much that they really need to pull it out of the bag with this one...
Doesn't Audi not want the R8 to compete with Lamborghini because it owns Lamborghini?
Emil u should reconsider your thoughts before posting... Just in case man just in case
Lighter is faster...
Heavier yes, but less powerful¿ ?
Carbuzz needs more people In its redundancy prevention department
What?! A faster AND more powerful car that it's predecessor?! it can't be, because usually when you upgrade a car it becomes heavier, slower and less powerful! This is breaking news for sure...
