Developed from the Lamborghini Gallardo, the first generation R8 paired more conservate (yet still stunning) styling with somewhat less esoteric materials and a V8. Released in 2006, the R8 competed with the Porsche 911 and Aston Martin V8 yet offered its own distinct flavor. For 2009, the R8 received a 518hp variant of the Gallardo's V10, bringing vastly improved performance and more aggressive styling to the model. At the 2010 Wörthersee Tour, Audi announced the most extreme variant of the R8 built up to that point: the GT.
Taking lessons learned from the R8 LMS racing programs and Audi's tremendous LMP1 successes, the R8 GT featured a 552hp V10 and a curb weight roughly 220 pounds less than the standard car thanks to extensive carbon fiber and reduced sound deadening. The result was a vehicle that could attain 62mph in merely 3.6 seconds (versus 3.9 for the standard V10) and a top speed of 199mph. Limited to just 333 units worldwide (an additional 333 Spyders were offered a year later), the R8 GT coupe is an exclusive version of the already incredible R8 5.2.
The magnificent 2012 Audi R8 GT 5.2 quattro Coupe featured here is finished in stunning Phantom Black Crystal over a gorgeous Black full leather interior. This meticulously maintained R8 has been driven a mere 18,381 miles from new and has been beautifully preserved. Featuring optional extras such as carbon-ceramic brakes and a full carbon fiber center console, this R8 GT is among one of the finest examples to come to market in years. With only 333 coupes being produced worldwide, this is the perfect investment example to add to any premier collection. Offered to the most demanding collector, investor, or enthusiast who desires to own one of the very best at an investment price!
