2008 Audi R8

Some sports cars can cost millions of dollars, and not all wealthy people feel comfortable with spending this much money. The 2008 Audi R8 seeks to fix this, by offering a cheaper version of some of the most powerful sports cars.

The 2008 Audi R8 looks very much like a Lamborghini, but costs a fraction of the price. This is to say, that the design is very sleek and desirable. An interesting blade grill makes the front end different from Lamborghini models, and adds a little extra flare that Lamborghinis don't always have.

The price of the Audi R8 will be much cheaper, but performance is still very high. The Audi R8 will have around 420 horsepower to speed through traffic with. An upper class eight cylinder engine is where most of the power is derived from. In fact the Audi can do 0 to 60 miles per hour in around four and a half seconds. This is on par with some of the more expensive Lamborghini models.

Customization is also fairly impressive. For instance, a choice between LED and regular headlights is available. The engine is also surrounded by LED lights, so it may be viewable at night times. A manual or automatic transmission can be selected, with no option for a hybrid transmission. The external choices are plentiful, but the interior is where most of the customizing is at. Leather seats, colors, audio systems, monitors, and much more can be added or upgraded to the Audi.

A few extras that complete the package are included as well. For instance, a camera is installed on the rear side to make sure tight spaces won't mean a risk of buying a new paint job. Hefty rims from around 18 to 19 inches can make an impact on arriving in the Audi. Topped off with a complete navigation system, it is likely the driver will not be getting lost anytime soon.

The 2008 Audi R8 will be sure to be popular among those who can afford it at around $100,000. The Audi R8 has many similarities to the Lamborghini in both design and power, so the buyer is saving a great deal amount of money through the Audi. About 15 of these will be built per day, so getting one could be tougher than obtaining a Lamborghini. However, it is very well worth the wait to get a taste of luxury at almost 10 times less than what the competition is going for.
