Quick Take: 2008 Audi R8 Road Test

The red rocks of the Nevada desert and the glitz of the Las Vegas strip set the backdrop for world-wide journalists’ first time behind the wheel of Audi’s all new R8 sports car.

Mid-engined madness with a viscous coupled center differential set the R8 apart from all other Audi models in the line up. Powered by a 420 bhp V8 FSI engine as in the RS4, a dry sump has been added in order to lower the engine placement in this low slung super coupe. Audi’s lightweight aluminum body, which is of course based on the Audi Space Frame, keeps the weight down and weight distribution comes in at 44/56. When taken all together these ingredients make for the most neutral handling production Audi ever.
