Tuscan Brown

Tuscan has a slightly orange tint. Pictures don't do it justice. It's just the wear issue

Tuscan Brown

Is it possible that different names in different markets?

Mustang Brown was offered in some other Audi models. It looks a bit darker (more brown) than Tuscan.

You'd be the FOURTH owner of that car. I'd be worried about why those other 3 people felt the need to trade in this car...

If that doesn't worry you, selling it to a 5th person would definitely hurt when it's time to sell.

I've always believed tuscan and mustang brown are one and the same - with trademark issues affecting calling it "mustang brown" in some markets. I know when I first looked at the r8, it was mustang brown here in the uk as I was going to have that with daytona grey exterior - but when talking/researching online, the US called it tuscan brown.

Photos never do anything justice, lighting and different setups can dramatically alter the images.

This is a 2009 which means its not even a V10. Brand new it was $100K invoice. If it were me I'd tell the dealer to take a $20K walk especially with what the 2012 V10's are selling for. This car on its best day is worth about $75k. Go look at the auctions. Better yet, since EDMUNDS is a public source that reveals TMV, Go ahead and plug in the numbers. But dont say I didnt warn you. Dont take these ridiculous dealer numbers to heart. Heck, even if the car had 5K miles it wouldnt be worth more than $80K due to the newer R8's, the V10's etc. So many factors knock this 2009 down to the mid $70's. Hey, if you want it bad then get it but me personally, I Dont buy into the "OOOOH, its an R8, Must be worth $100K!" Thats a bunch of bs.

Dont be afraid to tell the dealer he is asking for $20K more than the car is worth. In fact, walking should always be anticipated if you know the market. Otherwise, you will be throwing away $20K. There will always be another car. Good luck

You may not be accurate saying that because it was a 2009 the cost was $100K invoice. The base 2009 MT R8 with no options was $114K in 2008. My 2009 was $141,550 invoice and nobody was discounting the R8 in late 2008.

mark_nimba you do not have which R8 you own in your profile. It would be helpful if we knew where you are coming from with your comments. How much of a discount did you negotiate off with your new or used R8?

I was at St. Paul Audi yesterday. They just sold an R8 GT Spyder with a $20K discount, but the car had sat for eight months. The sticker on this car was $240K.

Edmunds does not allow you to select any CF option, which was $8400 in my case.

Um, yeah so I don't think I'm going to be getting any 2009 R8's for 75 grand. I'd love to, but I think it's going to happen. Does anyone else agree with mark nimba? Am I going to be seriously overpaying? Also the car has manufacturers warranty through June, and then becomes a certified Audi, cost included.
