Goodbye Aston...Hello Audi

[tyrhantc]

I was just looking at Funky's thread about Jeremy Clarkson and the ZR1 and saw this link to the side.

"Picking up the ‘GTR’ designation, the latest model builds on the success of the original version using knowledge PPI engineers have gathered over the past year from racing, wind tunnel development, and autobahn and track testing. The highlight of the package is an increased focus on optimising the power-to-weight ratio of the Audi R8, with engineers simultaneously boosting power while reducing weight.

The essential part of the motor alteration is the incorporation of a specially engineered supercharger. A ram-charged sport air filter system and a high performance exhaust system made of stainless steel have also been designed and added specifically to work in conjunction with this new forced-induction system.

The end result is a car with 580hp (427kW) and 600Nm of torque. At the same time, the R8’s 1,580kg kerb weight has been reduced by more than 250kg, enabling the Razor GTR to accelerate from 0 to 100km/h in only 3.7 seconds and reach a top speed of 332km/h.

Handling has been improved with the addition extra-wide 19in forged alloy wheels wrapped with 325mm Michelin Pilot Sport 2 tires in the rear and 255mm sets up front. Sitting within these is an updated brake package with six-piston calipers all around and 380mm discs up front and 356mm units in the rear. The final mod is a hydraulically adjustable suspension kit developed together with KW Automotive"

Mate I'm guessin this has already been discussed then...but I searched :confused: and its awesome anyway...:)

[VT_Lance]

i think this car just replaced my crush of the 911/911 turbo's mmmmmmm if only i could afford lol

[Rub]

nah, the awesomeness of the car was just.. WOW!

:)

[Uwish]

I would take a Lambo Gallardo Lp540 over this.
Audi will never have the wank factor of the Raging Bull.

R8 = Fags car
LP540 / 640 = Porn!

[zorro]

Interesting viewpoint Uwish considering that underneath they are almost the same car.....

[Uwish]

Yes similar, but they are still different. From what I have read the Lambo is the better car.
Also badge snobbery comes into play.

I get to drive this alot! It was in Au top gear last Monday!

Nice one.. If an R8 is a FAGS car, then id hate to hear what that makes a REX or Holden driver... A homophobic transvestite perhaps?

:flipoff:

[Uwish]

They are just a big version of a TT.
Its just my opinion. And most Lambo owners opinions!

This one is also aftermarket so not really impressive. Supercharged V8 / V10 making 580hp.
TT a Gallardo and you make anywhere from 750hp atw to 1300hp atw depending on the kit!

[GODSMACK]

TT a Gallardo and you make anywhere from 750hp atw to 1300hp atw depending on the kit! Yep, money well spent..... :rofl:

[NickS]

But most Lambo owners are pretentious wankers ... so who really gives a shit what they think.

:lol:

I figured as you have resorted to name calling I'd join in.

:goodjob:

[Uwish]

Most....... WOW I'm hurt :(

[tyrhantc]

Haha if liking the Audi R8 (especially this one) makes me a f*g then so be it...I'll tickle ya balls if thats what you want...:)

Haha +1 (and Rexxy owners) :eyes:

[Holden Man]

That Audi R8 looks horn :bow:

Re Lambo :

What speed do those Air intakes pop up ?

How was the car after it's hot laps ?

(That would be the only dark BLUE lambo I have seen)

[Uwish]

They open up when the engine gets to a certain point.
But if you open them with the button, they close at 40kmph.

But if hot they stay open until 100kmph or around there.

[VX2VESS]

so i assume you have that lambo uwish ?

both cars look great....

[GODSMACK]

Depends, do you want the silver 580hp variant, or the orange 1300hp version?

Note: i dont do R8's, there for fags, so ive heard...

[Uwish]

No mate, it is my brothers. No way in hell I can afford one.
I just get the benifits of driving it when I want.
Much cheaper that way

[Hi Octane]

Then again he may still have it.

I saw a story on the news early last week about a 20 something year old un-employed man in Sydney linked to one of the bikie gangs, having his $480k Lambo seized by the police. Any relation?

Such as???

refer to this article - http://www.smh.com.au/national/police-seize-millions-in-roof-20090429-anfh.html

Last paragraph, his youngest brother, and it reads: Fadi Ibrahim, often seen driving around his suburb of Castle Cove in a bright orange Lamborghini, recently had hundreds of thousands of dollars confiscated by the Crime Commission.

The news stated he was twenty something (i cant remember exactly how old), drove a orange lamborghini, had links to a bikie gang, which he does, and is unemployed.



Am i jealous, perhaps, but id sleep better at night if i drove a lambo that wasnt from the proceeds of crime...
