First on the road sighting

Post by stevo55 » Sun Jan 19, 2020 5:01 pm

Just seen the first C8 ‘in the wild’ in my sleepy little village. Private plate so not a dealer car. Nearly drove into the kerb it took me
By surprise.
Daytona with black optics pack and everything subdued.
Unfortunately couldn’t stop to speak to the driver but this must be one of the first deliveries? Wasn’t expecting them til next
Month.
One thing is for sure in the flesh it looked unbelievably good. The C7 looked the part and super aggressive but this is way beyond that.
Audi RS is absolutely on point once again. Massive want!
Good thing is C7 prices will drop a bit more now as that’s what’s next I think (again) unless RS5’s drop further (which they have been doing although the exhaust note really isn’t that good).

Possibly a private import ? Not sure dealers have released any or maybe an Audi vip? Can’t wait to see one in the flesh

I saw one today on the road which took me by surprise, guessing it came from Southend Audi.

Looked amazing.
