Used 2012 Audi R8 GT QUATTRO V10 SPYDER. 1 OF 333 WORLDWIDE. 1 OF 33 UK CARS. B & O SOUND.

The Audi R8 GT Spyder is the flagship of the drop-top R8 of this generation and it does not disappoint. There are quite a few visual differences that separate the GT model from the standard open-top car including contrasting titanium grey trim details, a front splitter with a dual lip, red GT badges, round exhaust tailpipes, an enlarged diffuser and dark LED lights in a clear-glass design. The styling isn’t the only thing that has changed because the R8 has been on a diet too. This GT version has shed 85kg and, as a result, weighs in at just 1,640kg. The engine frame is now made from ultra-light magnesium and further weight savings come from using lighter technical components in the transmission, wheels and brakes. Inside, the biggest weight-saving measure was achieved by using bucket seats with glassfibre-reinforced polymer and that saved 31.5kg in total. The R8 GT is one of the most extreme versions of the R8: its glorious sounding 552bhp V10 will accelerate prodigiously before topCARS
