What does everyone think of our all-new Audi R8 V10 Plus at Stafford Audi?

looks good! I had a go in Camberley's Daytona one and it really is an awesome bit of kit

It's nice, but here's the problem, it felt like I was getting into another Audi, it didn't feel special enough. I didn't have to tinker or play I just got in and drove as everything was second nature. For me, the problem is the price. 150k. Feels pricey.

picture is a bit small

Will be nice to see an R8 in new colours.

Had one for a couple of days last week and as mentioned, the price is far too high.

There are many other cars I'd have at that price or more importantly at 2/3 price like a 991 or 4 wheel drive f-type

The original R8 was a relative bargain at £78k, this is too expensive especially considering how many toys they've taken off it. Audi overpriced the new TT, discounts of £10k prove it. I can't see this being as popular as the original without big discounts.

I like it but if the DRC starts knocking will Audi say it's just "normal"...?

Just saying....

We've just added a mini blog to our site on the new R8! Let us know what you think! http://bit.ly/1XJvKV5

I like, but I fear it will soon be a whole lot less attractive once you lot inevitably thrash it from cold on test drives.

It's got some stiff competion for sure : http://www.topgear.com/car-news/superca ... udi-r8-v10

McLaren - cheaper, faster, better looking, and not 'another Audi'. You're in something special.

The R8 has priced itself out of the market.

Agreed, though I cannot see the Mac being cheaper in real terms. You'll get discount on the R8 and the Mac will need a few extras. There's also the thorny issue of depreciation with the Mac.

Has the girl on reception been given the password to Stafford Audi's RS246.com account...?

Perfect althought it's been slightly face lifted still ticks all the boxes for me deffo will be an Audi R8 for me next hopefully the v8 as the v10's are out of my price range
