Looks very nice, but likely to be circa £150k in uk, and value will drop like a stone when next gen R8 hits showrooms next year
You'd have to really want the latest R8 and those posh headlights to spend that sort of cash on what's effectively a runout special

It's a GT with the updated lights and S-Tronic.
Too much power is barely enough.

199mph. Come on surely 1 more mph would make it look all that much better.

Is it even coming to the UK? Looks like a US only car to me.
It's all torque talk.

LMX is about six months old now, must've sold them long ago.
