And here it is. Got the delivery today.
It's a 2008 R8 V8 with around 70.000km. on the clock.
It's in perfect mechanical condition and the exterior looks perfect too.
There are some little scratches in the interior but what can one expect for about 50k.
The car has been serviced and we found not a single problem on it. It's missing one of the badges on the engine cover but since I'm an Audi hater that's more like a bonus for me
Great deal for me and it's exactly what I want. I'll track the car and will at first do an APR ECU tune and it might turn out to be my first tuning project. I can handle the car's maintenance easily as it's German and I have enough parts on stock to build a second R8. It's going to be a daily, track, night clubs, weekends car... anything but a family car
Ahh and here are some crappy pictures with fcuked up textures as re-sizing wasn't their thing... obviously:
If you want more pictures just let me know. I don't have time to post the interior now but will sure do if you want... there's something in it I'm ashamed to share with people
Here we go:
Same case with my last car... the deal was too good to just walk away
90% of the cars I found were R-tronic and this one was in great shape and really cheap.
I couldn't sleep last night as I was both happy and had so many doubts about the transmission but it's too late now.
The story behind me owning an Audi goes like that:
Back in 2011 I was still driving my LP560-4 yet I started seeing R8s everywhere and every time I saw one on the street I was feeling really jealous and had the stupid desire to own both the Lambo and the R8... I already knew I'll be owning one some day. Actually I like the car so much that I took one with AT instead of a brand new manual Cayman S or a 2nd hand GTR. From that bunch it is the cheapest yet the most desired... a win-win situation. Not being a manual is bugging me a lot tho...
It has the perfect seats for a daily supercar and I do like the color combo too:
