We had LOTS of fun filming this video last summer. It's definitely worth a repost. www.autoguide.com/manufacturer/audi/2014-audi-r8-v10-plus-review-video-2704.html ***** #audir8 #wantanr8 #audi #sportscar #exoticcars #audir8review
We haven't tested it at this track yet, but we will. It's highly unlikely it will beat the Audi though. It's down on power and grip, plus there's no fancy dual-clutch transmission in the Vette.
Exactly! New generation r8 have ugly exterior design in my opinion, the rear, back, and sides also, all just kinda ugly if it compared to previous gen of r8 like in this video
Im a happy owner of the R8 V10 Plus. Good review but I really dont agree that the suspension should be to stiff. The roads around my place is full of post holes still no problem with the Plus. Naturally not as soft as an A6 but nor is it to stiff. Very easy to use as a daily driver even on ruff roads.
The Camaro ZL1. And before people comment that it's a stupid American muscle car, you need to drive it first. Yes it's heavy, but it makes 30 more horsepower and has considerably better tires.
It makes like no torque though, 550hp but like 384ish torque? Sorry if the numbers are slightly off but damn they could have increased the stroke and not make it wind out to 8k and make it make more torque! Like sure its fast and what not but seems expensive for that little amount of torque. I really liked the whole fsi injection too, its a shame it doesn't make more torque, plus 8k whinds eat oil too. 7k could have been more than plenty. Hell 6 1/2k would be a good number if I had this beefy fuel efficient v10 behind me!
who cares how much torque it makes it if it is that fast? 0-60 in 3.3 tells me it makes plenty of torque. isn't the whole reason you want a lot of torque so the thing accelerates fast? doesn't this car pass that test?
I suggest you should learn about the formula of horsepower and torque, try to understand it not hear from some guy from youtube. So you will have a better understand of how they work. Notice that this engine Rev very lively.
I dont meant to sound like a jerk or anything, but rather than saying "dear santa" or "I need to win the lottery", why doesnt anyone ever think about getting a different job or coming up with something new. Not everything can be handed to you, but hey a job cant either..
the interior of the R8 has aged horribly, it looks cheap with carbon fiber tacked on. look at the handbrake and the center arm rest and console, they look like they are made of the same plastic out of a camry. also it really bugs me he is in the auto setting on track.... common man.
Again two seats. Are you telling me you cant put an engine like that in a car with four seats? Damn how many patents did the catholic church mess with?
the camaro ZL1 is an old school muscle car that has current day technology and a sound that can cause earthquakes. and we all love it. just like the vette and the viper
Keep in mind I went looking at these at a dealership closed for a day, for fun, and they had 3 of these outside.... yes, outside. Two V8s and one V10.... amazingly there was a 60 grand difference in between the 8 and 10
This car is cool but need something new.! Coming from a family who own only Audi I'm expecting the newest one thats about come out to at least keep up with gtr performance and handling.!!
vivalaphill Just to clarify. The engine is a Lamborghini sourced V10 so the get the engine from Lamborghini and makes some tweaks to it, but overall it's mostly the same engine that was used in the Gallardo. And secondly, Audi owns Lamborghini, but Volkswagen owns Audi and Porsche.
And what if I were to ask you the point of a sports car. It's not the same as a race car is it? Does the speed of shift make the slightest difference to ones enjoyment of the car? No. All it does is make it easier to drive, and reduce the challenge (and therefore fun) of driving. Fast road cars exist for one thing only - fun. An automatic gearbox takes away some of that. Therefore, why the fuck would anyone want an AUTOMATIC SPORTS CAR. A SPORTS CAR THAT CHANGES GEAR FOR YOU. It's just sad.

could you please tell us the name of the music in the beginning of the video?
Sexiest car of the century that look just can't get old. Kudos to the designer of the R8
I bought this car last week I love it
We haven't tested it at this track yet, but we will. It's highly unlikely it will beat the Audi though. It's down on power and grip, plus there's no fancy dual-clutch transmission in the Vette.
Picking up this car next week! so excited!
Still my favorite, even over the 2020 R8

Sooo... What do you do for a job to afford a car like this?
I'd take an R8 V10 Plus over a 911 GT3 any day of the week. The aural splendor and curvaceous exterior are miles better.
We're hoping to. We'd expected it to be even faster than the R8 too.
AUTOGUIDE! Best reviews on youtube. Wish they did more normal cars as well
The Camaro ZL1. And before people comment that it's a stupid American muscle car, you need to drive it first. Yes it's heavy, but it makes 30 more horsepower and has considerably better tires.
The cup holders are good in the 991 carrera!
Great Car!☆
Also the best presenters. I hope they get big
the description says "Audi R8 V0 Plus"..
where did the Porsches and GTR come?

I thought it ran 3.8 seconds on audi's website, which for the money of a v10+ you could own a gtr or 911 turbo which accelerate a lot faster.
Gtrs and porsches are ugly....the r8 is beautiful
I suggest you should learn about the formula of horsepower and torque, try to understand it not hear from some guy from youtube. So you will have a better understand of how they work. Notice that this engine Rev very lively.
the 911 turbo s actually cost more then the r8 plus
I dont meant to sound like a jerk or anything, but rather than saying "dear santa" or "I need to win the lottery", why doesnt anyone ever think about getting a different job or coming up with something new. Not everything can be handed to you, but hey a job cant either..
Pirellis hold my car back too. Nice lap time.
so Ive heard
thing is.. most people go for looks.
Test the GT-R and it will beat the record.
Ahhhhhh the Charger beats that!
clark kent So what US sports cars sucks
Yo what are i doing with my car
I'll let you know after I win.
911 rival? dude they come from the same corporate!!
baldog
First time first!\
so beautiful... what a machine... audi
the Porsche GT3 will beat that but I like how the R8 looks
I much prefer this design over the new R8
still looks better than a porsche
I mean, it's CRAZY to think about having sex with a car.....right?
The first car I thought abt putting my pee pee in a cars exhaust pipez
It looks very gorgeous in red.
They let 12 year olds comment on UA-cam?
this car is stunning in real life
Now I just need to win the lottery...
the cupholders suck -> No way to critizise anything else....
Brilliant review, picking one up in a few days!!
Beautiful...
5.2 liter v10 still makes less power than Ferraris 4.5 v8(speciale)
the interior of the R8 has aged horribly, it looks cheap with carbon fiber tacked on. look at the handbrake and the center arm rest and console, they look like they are made of the same plastic out of a camry. also it really bugs me he is in the auto setting on track.... common man.
beautiful car!
Again two seats. Are you telling me you cant put an engine like that in a car with four seats? Damn how many patents did the catholic church mess with?
The r8 is more elegant than the Nissan. I love the gtr but, come on.audi is known for higher class. Personally I'm a gt500 and ford Gt guy
test a GTR, would destroy the audi's laptime for sure. then again audi is a better all around car where GTR specializes in speed alone.
V10 plus isn't worth the 'plus' you pay over the standard v10. Buy the older model too...with a manual...spyder/coupe is ur choice
S8 0-60 in 3.5 seconds .....R8 in 3.3 .....I would go for the most luxurious S8
now compare it to nissan gtr
If I owned one I’d Rocket bunny wide body it plus twin turbo it
look better in the r8, but the s8 is bad ass
the ride is stiff....no why sounds like it mite be a super car....
The audi r8 v8 is compared with the Porsche 911 not the r8 v10!..
sorry... but wouldnt own one even if i got the money...
R8 is a toy for corners not drag strips.
They should make a R8 v8 Plus for the people who want a v8 r8
can u tell us which car was 4 sec slower than the audi??
the camaro ZL1 is an old school muscle car that has current day technology and a sound that can cause earthquakes. and we all love it. just like the vette and the viper
They should make an R8 plus too
how about a standing start race with a zx10 video
So in other words, we're almost looking at a car designed for people who cant afford a Gallardo. Not a bad step down honestly
Keep in mind I went looking at these at a dealership closed for a day, for fun, and they had 3 of these outside.... yes, outside. Two V8s and one V10.... amazingly there was a 60 grand difference in between the 8 and 10
does the corvette stingray 2014 beat this car? if so how much more. please reply.
This car is cool but need something new.! Coming from a family who own only Audi I'm expecting the newest one thats about come out to at least keep up with gtr performance and handling.!!
TMP? Toronto Motorsport Park? Great track. That's the reason for no helmet. Helmet only required with a convertible. Great review as always.
Neymar bought AUDI R8.
nice
What are u doing with my car
smaller gas tank..that sux
gated 6spd shifter...drool
The cup holder suck. Lol
nobody knows who that is
Please tell me what the name of this song 0:33
Please someone :3
Lorran Rodrigues TMX STAR Dubstep vs DNB - NGB Dubstep
Sopix thanks :D
Dear Santa.....
Thanks..impressive the audi can be 4 sec faster than that beast..
With the S Tronic, adjustable suspension, the R8 v10 is awesome
Auto guide has the best editors of all the car review channels
autoguide loves their wub wubs
audi sucks
Pretty sweet car
Can you test the 2014 Nissan GT-R Track Edition?
when did peyton manning become a car reviewer?
what's your favourite Audi
this car reminds me of a bugatti..
elegant sports car.
Nissan GTR!! :)
Nice review !
love it
i hate everyone that says its a lambo engine !!!
exactly what im talking about the engine(5.2 V10) was engineered by audi.....and everyone thinks it is the other way
***** correction: Volkswagen owns lambo Audi and Porsche. Audi don't own jack.
sorry i have to dissagree Audi really owns Lamborghini...
Why do you thinks its called the "Volkswagen Group?"
vivalaphill Just to clarify. The engine is a Lamborghini sourced V10 so the get the engine from Lamborghini and makes some tweaks to it, but overall it's mostly the same engine that was used in the Gallardo. And secondly, Audi owns Lamborghini, but Volkswagen owns Audi and Porsche.
