Hey Guys,

Been lurking here for a while so decided to get a bit more active.
Heres a couple of pics of my 2011 R8 V10 Cab 6 Speed Manual

Im 26 from Melb, Vic, Aus

Jumped out of an 2012 RS5 Facelift..
Look forward to getting to know a few of you.

Cheers
Dave

Awesome! Congrats. How are you liking it compared to the RS5?

 

[bdzy88]

Very different, but I've always had my heart set on one.

To be honest, it's easier to drive, and a ton more comfortable..
Just love it lol

The R8 is a very comfortable car, easy to drive and looks great. Enjoy it.

I promise, one day I will own one as well. I will buy your '11 in 2045? haha the value I hope will go down by then? but who knows. does anyone know the production numbers of the R8?

That it is, quite suprised actually, was expecting it to be balls out supercar, but - it is actually quite tame and refined
much like a GT car - actually its less harsh then my RS5 was.. I use it as a daily so, cant complain

Congrats, beautiful car.

Thanks mate - Love your G8 too, here in aus, I had the wagon variant for a while, i was on the g8talk boards as xploit
You have probably seen some photos of it, black, slammed, 22's etc - Great cars.

Congrats man!

Thanks mate, I am quite frequent on R8talk and ozaudi.. Been in to the whole forum thing for quite a while, and if anyone wants to know how to pull any audi apart i've pretty well worked on them all and pulled them down to nothing and rebuilt them.

Congrats on the purchase! How does it drives compared to the RS5?

Beautifully, as mentioned before - A whole heap tamer, until pushed, then it will suck your face off.
But, as an everyday vehicle 10 times better.

SOOOOOO Jealous!!!! AHHHHH

On this model i believe its 390kw i could be wrong, quoted about 3.9 to 100kmh or 62mph.. I could be wrong though.
The manual slows it down a bit, just depends how quickly you can slam the gears - but its a whole lot more fun.

Very beautiful. Congrats!

Welcome to L4P, beautiful Spyder. I miss my old coupe

Thanks guys, they definitely are a head turner and a great machine.

No your not, keep working at it.

I started as a labourer at 17 digging holes for 80 dollars a week, picked myself up and almost 10 years later of working insane hours.
I have something to show for it, you blokes in the USA dont know how lucky you are - one like this costs approx mid 200,000 USD

A new one here will set you back 450,000 USD + On Road Costs

Welcome , And Congrats take care of that beauty :clap:

Right hand drive FTW! Beautiful car. Enjoy it!

Thanks guys, greatly appreciated

Cheers

[bdzy88]

Thanks Tony,

That I do.
But every set i look at i get raped with the shipping costs to AUS.

That, And i really am not sure what style to get yet.

Cheers.

Canadian actually. Sorry I had a few crappy days at work, and in a few weeks I get my exam results back to see if I'm a designated accountant, so the stress level is high.

Almost 30 here lol. Glad to see your hard work paid off.
