Audi Exclusive Floor Mats - R8 logo?

[R84ME]

The standard R8 floor mats are kind of cheezy. I have been looking for alternatives, like a set of Lloyd mats that were in my Porsche. While on their web site, I noticed they do not offer Audi logo mats - but do offer Porsche & VW logos. I sent them a message to see if they were re-negotiating with Porsche, now that they have controlling interest in VW/Audi. Maybe they want to keep Audi Exclusive, exclusive?

The Audi Exclusive mats are quite pricey at $500 in the US AE catalog. I've been searching for a picture on-line but have not been able to find one. For those that have them, do they have the R8 logo? Can you post a pic?

Thanks in advance.

I have the AE floor mats and at $480, they were worth it and finish the car beautifully. There is no logo but they can be any color with any piping. Mine are black with the cognac piping which the rest of the car is finished with. The fit masterfully with the front end actually resting under the seat. They hug the countour of the floor perfectly. Well worth the price

If your still interested, I can take some pics this evening

They are $480, carpeted, and have a contoured fit that is quite impressive. They are not easily removed

Your comments do not fall upon deaf ears but... the same could be said for the $10,770 Exclusive Leather Package 2, or the $2730 Exclusive headliner or the $7630 5 piece R8 luggage. Better yet, how about the $1200 AE fee just for the ABILITY to buy those items. The fit and finish of this car's interior is par with any car in its price range and those floor mats with the matched piping, believe it or not, do enhance the presentation. At $140K+ USD... when does that line get drawn between highway robbery and completing the whole package? Those who own this vehicle... what's $480? Really... that's a few nights out for dinner with the family. Those mats elicit smiles every time I swing that door open and will for as long as the car remains in the stable. Well worth the price of admission. Just an opinion.

Oh definitely, there's a lot that's overpriced (one could maybe even say the R8 itself), but there are some things worth paying extra for... I actually spent 1400 on that r8 luggage group buy. I could definitely get cheaper luggage, but to me it was worth it since it was exclusive to the car and a perfect fit.

On the other hand, somthing I'd walk all over though (a piece of carpeting) isn't worth the premium. Though, if you post some pictures, I may think differently (but I'd still prefer all weather mats ).
