The R8 is beautiful, in any color.
A friend said he experienced some random stalling which I am not sure if it had anything to do with his skills 😂.

Audi R8 V8 / V10.
First issued with a V8 4,2 delivering 420 HP, then with a V10 delivering 520 HP minimum, the R8 was a kind of super GT. A bit heavy but good looking, original, powerful and comfortable. I prefer the style of the V8, and the 6 manual gear box. Here are som...
The style was pretty much the same (the last picture is just the second generation) 😊
It was an amazing car indeed. The only downside is that compared to a 911 they were quite fragile, especially if you planned to use them on a track (they were fine with general road use). The 911, Nissan GT-R or even a Renaultsport Megane RS were built fo...

The manual gearbox for me also.
These dashboards without dominant flat screen displays are much easier on the eyes. Thanks for the photos. M4
Second owner…
… and still smiling. Got it at 35k and have put 50k kms on it as a daily driver. Unfortunately not a manual, very few where I live, but the high pitched V8 in paddle mode makes up for it somewhat ...
