This two-part video, in German, compares the two cars head-to-head, which are priced almost exactly the same in Europe:

What could you possibly do to make the R8 a better car? How about putting a 520hp V10 instead of the 420hp V8? Well here it is, and it’s coming to Canada. I snapped a shot of this white one while drooling over it at Agincourt Autohaus.

In this video (which is in German) two aftermarket tuned R8’s go head-to-head. One is tuned by MTM, the other by Abt – both major players in the aftermarket tuning business for Audi’s (and other German makes).

I didn’t think it was possible, but Audi improved the R8. They added a new V10 engine, some body tweaks, and standard LED lighting. The result is in the video below:

This video shows the production process for the Audi R8, which is completely built by hand.

Top Gear is probably the most entertaining show on television. A selection of this episode takes the fantastic R8 vs. the hardcore Porsche GT3.
