Best thing to learn it with texts about things, you really love. I'm sorry, that I have normally no time to translate these articles…I know, that nearly no one here can german…

I though the technical brilliance of the R8 would be replicated or even magnified with the launch of the V10 version, but so far the car has failed to impress. The performance figures don't make my jaw drop and the price is preposterous. One is much better off paying an extra coin for the LP560 which is a better car from every aspect.

LP560

0-100 km/h: 3.8 s
0-160 km/h: 7.8 s
0-200 km/h: 11.6 s

Max: 325 m/h

100-0 km/h: 34.1 m
200-0 km/h: 133.9 m

av. fuel consumption: 23.1 l/100km

18 m slalom: 70.6 km/h
36 m slalom: 134 km/h

What's wrong with Audi? after the clever R8 V8..they disappoint like this with the V10?

Definitely the Lambo for me..
