Amazing R8 test figures

Just look at this:

0-60mph: 4.0s
0-100mph: 9.9s
0-120mph:14.3s

1/4mile 12.6s @113mph

Re: Amazing R8 test figures
LIES!!! We want proof!!! LOL

Anyways, I think the R8 will be in the mid to low 4s for the 0-60mph time...but definitely not 4 flat.

Re: Amazing R8 test figures
from R&D

0-60mph (s): 4.3
0-100mph (s): 10.5
0-120mph (s): 15.3

I wouldnt be surprised if those numbers from Audiholic are meassured by C&D. they alwyas get impressive numbers.

You should of known better than to present such amazing numbers to the GCZ members! This car was doomed from the start no matter how hot it looks because of the expected poor performance times! But now you put fourth some amazing performance figures and it must be bullsh!t!
It's a damn shame Audiholic, a damn shame!!
