Ingolstadt â€“ For the first time, Audi Sport will offer a racing sports car specifically developed for customer use in the form of the powerful 500 hp plus GT3 version of the Audi R8 which will be available from autumn 2009. The logistics and factory space required for the AUDI AG customer programme will be created over the next few months in Ingolstadt, Neckarsulm and GyÃ¶r.

Ditto, but exhaust pipes (or lack of) are a bit disappointing...?

Plenty more to admire than pipes IMO !

If the RS4 4.2 can produce 500hp that'll be ~119hp/litre...more than a F430 Scuderia or 997 GT3RS.

Based on the optimistic OEM quoted figures for both the B7 RS4 and the R8, I'll believe that when I see it.

Buyers ought to get a free chassis dyno print-out when they buy to prove it.
