I'm totally blow away by the performance of the R8 V10 Plus. It totally crushes the much more unique R8 GT.

No reply? C'mon guys, aren't you excited about this big versus?

This is a no match. The guys at AZ had to pick the fastest BMW against the fastest Audi because they were doing a huge Audi vs. BMW comparison, that's all.

One's a supercar and the others a big, heavy GT, it's not exactly going to be a revelation that the R8 is quicker up to 200km/h or around the track because they are poles apart. I don't see the point in comparing cars that aren't generally viewed as rivals, it's like comparing a Ferrari 458 with a Toyota MR2 just because they've each got 2 seats and are mid-engined.

Interesting. I am more interested in new FWD BMWs beating Audi's FWD lineup

Good job BMW letting us down

 

[Tumbo]

I was referring to the R8's fantastic performance with the best times to 0-100, 0-200 ever recorded by any R8. It's quite impressive what they have achieved with the R8 V10 Plus version. I still am dreaming of an ultra lighweights R8 that does 0-100 under 3 seconds and 0-200 in around 9.5 seconds. That would be something.

The point with this comparison is the quickest Audi vs the quickest BMW. So, as pointless as it is to you, I do see it's interesting that this is the fight of the best cars the two competitor companies have to offer in their lineup.

The M6 wins in their opinion anyway
Google Translate:
Despite the new transmission (S tronic) can not win still fascinating and highly dynamic R8. He is too uncompromising, expensive and thirsty. The BMW offers a direct comparison more space, comfort and modern architecture as well as electronic control of the R8. And damn you're quickly on your way to the M6 anyway.

Yes it does. It's more practical as an every day super car/GT.
I would of course pick the R8 over the M6 (who wouldn't?) if it came to true heart decision. But for practicality and every day need, the M6 would be a better pick.

^Enough poeple would pick the M6 over the R8. Everybody have its own taste, some like sportscars some like big fast gt´s. Why would poeple take a Audi R8 if he can purchase a 911, too? It has all to do with personal feelings tastes and so on.

Given the choice I'd pick the M6 too simply because it would be my daily driver and practicality always wins in my opinion, plus a W/Chair wouldn't have a hope of fitting in an R8. But you see how pointless this test is when the decision is based on practicality, why pit a super car against a GT???????????

 

[ateekt]

R8 here! No matter how much I love the BMW, in this match R8 is way ahead. Probably because both cars are different.

 

[mini_cooper4]

That's a stupid comparo but my choice would be the R8, of course

 

[Huckfeldt]

We all do realize that the only reason they did this comparo is because of the LACK OF A MID ENGINED SUPERCAR from BMW, right ? Dont get me wrong, in fact I own two Beemers but I would get an R8 and a regular daily Beemer than an M6 and a regular daily audi.

 

[Human]

I voted for the M6 and that is out of pure honesty for it's a car I REALLY like in more ways than one.

For what it is, how it's engineered and the way it thrills and does nothing wrong the R8 is one hell of a machine. Respect for Audi's finest always.
