    Ian, will take a look,

    details of the GT have just arrived in the post from Jeremy Hicks director of Audi, with quality photographs and an in depth detailed description of the car, delivery is due spring 2011 and as far as i can tell all 33 UK cars are to be allocated to existing R8 owners by allocation, mine is number 21.

    It’s a long way off but am seriously thinking of going for the Samoa Orange out of the 4 standard colours, although Audi have confirmed that you can opt for the Audi exclusive programme if you wish ( at extra cost! ) the interior as standard is in alcantara inc the bucket seats with a contrasting stich & with a synthetic sharkskin look material to the bulkhead, door liners, instrument cowl and dashboard, the monposto & other trim is in matte carbon.

    There will be a choice of two wheel designs, body colour front splitter and carbon fibre engine comp lining. there is even an option of a lighter carbon fibre bucket seat!

    Price confirmed at £142,585 on the road exc personalisation, so £150K!

    From the pack I 'thought' all the GT cars are matte rather than gloss, but perhaps its just an option.

    Jochen does a great walk-around video on the new GT features - a kid in the candy store! In German with English subtitles. I think they opened a hole in their secure R8 Pilots site because I can access this video without being logged in. Give it a try.

    I am seriously considering the GT... I wonder how hard it will be to get one in US. IF ever! Unfair...you UK guys get all the special percs...
