R8 Spyder V8

[Greg P]

Anybody got their R8 Spyder V8's yet ? Mine is due to land at the dealer in around 3 weeks time and would love to hear of anyones personal experiences/pics. Haven't managed to find any reviews on this model yet on the internet either, so any info appreciated.

One more question - does anybody know what ratio of Spyders are being produced compared to coupes ? Is the factory still producing a maximum of 30 R8's each day ? Are there any stats of where factory output is allocated geographically ?

Really looking forward to the new garage addition and counting down the weeks now.

I've been at the Audi-Factory at Neckarsulm about 3 weeks ago. They told me that about 16-18 R8 would be build each day. The ratio Spyder/Coupe is about 40:60. There have been a lot of Spyder V8 visible. A lot of the cars will be produced for the American market

I hate you already just because you're getting one (buyer's remorse) On the Nat Geo documentary, they mention 20 coupes a day.


Enjoy the Christmas present, look forward to pictures ! (what color is it?)

Black with red.

Informed today that the car is currently at Emden port waiting to ship.

Wow - that was quick !

My car has arrived at the dealer this morning. Downside is I'm on business for the next couple of weeks, so won't be able to go and see her until then. The suspense is killing me.
