Audi r8 gt limited edition

However, thanks to the slightly crumbled durability of wartime concrete to each side of the amusing new track at Blyton Park near Gainsborough, I can tell you that the R8 GT does not ride as cleverly as its standard stablemate. Presumably that will come as a surprise to precisely none of you. For the record, the GT wears passive springs and dampers that lower the body by 10mm over the standard car. Camber rates are upped, and the steering is even quicker, all to boost agility.

Not that the R8 had a problem with that before. What results, though, is a delightful car to drive. The GT goes marginally better, still sounds excellent, and now stops without fatigue.

It regains the agility that the V10 lost from the V8 R8, and adds more. Yet the inherent adjustability and playfulness of regular R8s remains, too.

Earlier this month, Audi confirmed what we all suspected: the next-generation R8 will ditch the V10 in favor of an all-electric powertrain.

We weren't surprised. After all, Audi is transitioning into an electric-only brand by But before the next-generation R8 switches to electric propulsion, the current-generation Vpowered car will bow out with a bang. Speaking with Top Gear , Audi RS division boss Sebastian Grams hinted at plans to develop a special-edition model to celebrate the R8's revered V10 and mark the end of the current generation.

There will definitely be more [cars] to come on this generation of R8 platform," said Grams. At the moment people are enjoying the R8 and we have a lot of sales.

But I can tell you we have enough ideas for the future. Sadly, Grams didn't divulge any more details, but his comments hint at the possible return of the hardcore R8 GT.
