Are we talking about the R8 here?

Sorry, yes the R8..Just thought the video is pretty cool driving a GT on the local street.....

China is expected to become Audi's most significant market real soon now.

Think about it:

Ferrari flies Berger and the 2003 F1 race car over for the opening of the Shanghai race track.
Audi sends the R8 to drive through Beijing.
The entire DTM circus is flying over for a demonstration race in Shanghai.

Some people are taking this market very seriously. The margins are great, no stupid warranty policy and a lot of work is going into designing chop stic holders and steralisers along with wok holders - these are interesting times.

Just notice that after seeing the video again, their is one pedestrian standing in the middle of the street where the R8 turn left after passing the memorial building (if that what it called?) and as the R8 accelerate through to the right side of camera car you will be surprise to see that a pedestrain is there. This guy must be out of his mind:trash:
