"Race" was between 250km/h till 280km/h and Cayenne Turbo S was at first about 2 car lenghts faster. At 280km/h(and more) I was getting closer to him and eventually at 295km/h I overtake him. Just, I needed about 5km or more of autobahn to do so. Also, R8 V8 is not very fast after 260km/h, you need a lot of time to reach 300km/h and more...
Hmm... I think that you will have to except the fact that RS5 will be faster in 0-200km/h then R8 V8. Yes, that fact is IMO hard to except.
BTW, fastest R8 V8(manual) measured by German magazines reached 200km/h in 15.1s(tested by AB Sports Car Edition). Various other examples were between 15.8s-17.2s
Fastest R8 V10 was measured at 12.3s. At least it meant Audi factory claim which for R8 V8 is unfortunately not true.
Since M3 MDCT is as fast in straight line as R8 V8 we can assume that RS5 will be faster then both.
what a big improvement by Porsche for 997 Turbo !
incredible the launch at the end of this video...what a traction and what a beast!

yes r8v10 is slow compaired to the 997 turbo mk2 with pdk.
Audi missed a big thing with not putting the pdk into the r8...
Here are a few more spy shots in Barcelona:

I'm sick of spyshots that dont reveal anything new. This is as boring as watching the new 5 series losing camouflage in spypics.

yea, getting a little tired of the spy pics as well (though those drilled rear brakes look awesome)
