Feels like the launch for this has come safely in advance of the end of prototyping. It is very tough to get any response from PD on even the most obvious technical issues. That said, they are probably benefitting from the fact that other competitors like PPI and TC Concepts have seemingly imploded in a dust cloud of indifference, incompetence or both.

Either way, I am not holding my breath to see real versions of this kit as opposed to the rendered offerings on the site.

This is an email I got from them

The Audi R8 PD GT850 Wide Body Kit will cost 24.900,00 Euro plus shipping to Spain 143,90 Euro.

I have got so many orders in back order that’s why the delivery time can take till the end of December or beginning of January

They need to lower their price in order to get more customers.

Looks amazing but that one doesnt look the same as the rendering for the GT850 kit? Both look stunning tho but **** thats some serious cash! If you are gonna put that much cash into an R8 why even get an R8? As much as I love the R8 I know if it wasnt for the price difference I would be driving an LP560 right now!

Three reasons : Daily drivability, servicing and overall reliability.
