“ENGINE WORTHY OF THE TRACK” -audiusa.com

We had the opportunity to ride along in the Audi R8 v10 Plus Quattro S red hot $215 thousand dollar supercar with journalist Jared Paul Stern, for a piece about the newest model. The locations could not be more perfect including white crushed shell roadways, vistas alongside the ocean and downtown Kennebunkport, Maine.

Did you know the Audi R8 has a Lamborghini engine, and blew up on the luxury scene after Iron Man?!

InsideHook has the scoop.

• based on the Lamborghini Gallardo
• 602 hp and 413 lb-ft of torque
• 5.2-liter FSI dual-injection V10 engine

Jared Paul Stern says the R8 is “a serious rival to the Huracán and just as likely to draw envious glances — though not nearly so many dirty looks.”

We could not agree more.
