    No 1 R8 by Audi exclusive at Geneva Auto Show 2007

    Hi all,

    want to start my first post on RS6.com with some pics of an R8 design prototype made by Audi exclusive :bigeyes:. This car is being shown at Geneva Auto Salon 2007 behind closed doors (well they opened them for me at least). It looks absolutely gorgeous (btw it is simply the best of all cars at the show !!) and I would have loved to take it with me but they refused

    You can find the picture show following this link then click either on the first pic or on "Präsentation starten" (I will add a few more pics tomorrow):

    Enjoy !

    The special specs of this car are:

    - 19" rims painted in silver metal (prototype)
    - carbon side bars
    - carbon inlays
    - phantom black pearl effect
    - cream white exclusive leather (prototype)

    An R8 luggage set in same leather was displayed as well (two versions available: 5 pieces or 7 pieces with two bags fitting behind the seats) as was a side bar in light colored carbon (prototype).

    More pics of other R8's and A5/S5's shown in Geneva to follow tomorrow through a different link...

    Welcome aboard and with exclusive photos like that you will be a popular guy.

    If ever Ben was to have a R8 it would have a set of those bling, bling wheels.
    Search and you will find the truth.
