The Audi R8. When it was released in late 2006 it was met with the “love it” or “hate it” reaction. However, quickly, it gathered a cult like following and has since become one of the most popular supercars on the market. It now comes in three variants, 4.2 liter V8 coupe, 5.2 liter V10 couple and 5.2 liter V10 spyder. Three great options. They all come equipped with Quattro, four wheel drive, which is great for handling and inclement weather. Not many supercars are offered with AWD so that gives it a major leg-up on the competition, especially for markets that experience snow, like New England. It has clearly been established that this car is an amazing piece of engineering. Most would be content with what it is and extremely happy with it. Not our friends over at Underground Racing in North Carolina, they had to go and make it a complete animal; and I love it. They started with the already fast V10 then strapped on the stage 3 turbo conversion and now it is beyond fast. It produces a blistering 1000hp on pump gas and an unbelievable 1300 hp on race gas. It has more power than the coveted Bugatti Veyron and and weights less that combination equals fantastic performance. Most likely 0-60 is around the mid two second range. So if you are looking for the comfort, power and exclusivity of a Veyron without the million dollar price range, you have found your ride.
