1450lbs or something
420 hp
magnetic ride control

Look its a beautiful car but I must say I was expecting the V10 to come out to due to some rumors on this site and others and I was also expecting it to weigh hundreds of pounds less or at least 100 lbs less.
What happened???

We were all hoping for less weight and more powe. Guess they decided the luxury features and the audio system were more important. At least the look is nailed down perfectly, although I am kind of dissapointed with the hp and weight the same way I was when the AMV8 was revealed.

The V10 should solve anyones complaints about power though.

The official press release says 3.71 kg/bhp, so I am guessing it weighs 1560kg.

Yes, the weight in R8 brochure is 1560kg.

Interesting thing while most options are available from the start few very important are not in dealers system yet:

-Magnetic Ride(a must)
-Ceramic Brakes(well...)
-Bucket Seats
-Leather packages from Audi Exclusive

Autocar has suggested that the 19's will be standard in the UK, and the 18's standard in the rest of Europe.

Interesting to see that Audi is the first non-supercar-manufacturer to say "goodbye" to the gentlemen's agreement of 250kph Vmax ...
