Excellent sounds ... shame they had to have the backing music as loud as they did ... the music of the car would have been perfect on it's own ... it needs no jazzing up with a fancy backing track ... let the four pipes of the R8 exhaust make their own soundtrack ...

Sorry to be a spoilsport, but the audio you are hearing is absolutely not from the car(s) you are seeing. It is laid in from other recordings. (trust me, I have done it for Porsche, among others). Listen to the audio @ LVMS, it is from an unmuffled car, probably recorded at a racecar test session.....
In fact, those few who have driven/ridden in an R8 to date have been disappointed in the audio, wishing it to be louder by much!
The aftermarket exhaust systems mentioned in another thread will likely be mandatory for those of us who consider the engine the "sound system" in our cars.
I had to install a Tubi system on my Maranello to get it to sound like it looks!
I just hope someone will have a system available soon after customer deliveries......
