@RickyAstle98 do you have the Sport Auto scans (11/2014) for this car in a direct comparison with a Nissan GTR and a Porsche 911 Turbo S? And if so, can you provide them here?
Many Thanks

Actually this car has put in some good times, a sub 11 second quarter mile run has really shocked me!

I'm surprised they went ahead with this yet the etron R8 which had been in ironman for a few hundred years ago still isn't out, instead the sls became the first electric supercar

Starting price is €210,000, So would prolly be round €230,000 fully optioned maybe. A Squadra Corse starts at €192,000, Prolly around the samealso fully optioned, So its actually €18,000 less then an R8 LMX. And the LMX would most likely get killed round a track and acceleration compared to a Squadra Corse, Dunno though, Just my guess. But its not gonna be easy to get either since there so limited. A R8 V10 Plus starts at €175,000, Id pay it, But 210k Seems a bit much for the LMX.

Also, isnt the Bmw I8 out? I know you can build an I8 on the Bmw website here, Dunno bout the actual delivery dates though, So i think Bmw may actually be first no? Cause the LMX mode isnt out yet no? Plus i think if that was Audis aim, Just to beat Bmw over a pair of headlights is just absolutlely hilarious.

Yeah the r8 has a good dsg but that was only given to it recently. At no point has the R8 been as fast as the gallardo, and it has always weighed more too. But the R8 was barely more than 100k pounds in cost. This one is just ouch

Gallardo is still for sale as special edition. R8 uses the most modern V10, Gallardo when had 520 Ps uses 5.0 l V10, the old one, R8 V10 from 2010 had 525 PS and new 5.2 l V10... Maybe R8 have little less power but R8 in the old generation have 7-speed DSG, Gallardo (even the newest) still use this shitty single clouch e-gear. Lambo= more power, Audi= better technology.
Huracan costs 201,000 euros...

R8 are the same but come later, Lamobrghini allready has new gen, and Audi still testing the new generation of R8.

Cheaper? I don't think so, but we will see. And it have the same power as the strongest Gallardo so I can't see detuned here.

the gallardo is out of production.

The R8 has ALWAYS used the outdated version of the V10. When the Gallardo had 553, the R8 only had 518. Even up to the 2013 model, Gallardo 562, R8 V10 Plus 542.

Now, Huracan 603, R8 562 the engine configuration that Lambo no longer use.

R8s were always cheaper than Lambos, so that was justified. 200E isn't cheap for sure tho. Still cheaper than the Huracan.

That is more or less the same as the LP 570-4 Squadra Corse. These laser headlights probably have very raised the price

The Sixth Sense..

LMX=LackingModernXcitement

Its a Pseudo-Psuedo GT, I dont really see the point in it, Sure its gonna be a great car, But i also dont see the sense in it, Id rather they made an RS8, Love the R8, But almost seems like they made this just to show of laser headlights, Not like normal headlights or LEDs arent good enuff, Whats next? luxurious rock seats? Human skin interior from 17yr old virgins? Alligator center dashes? Invisible rims? Intergrated smell system? Brakes that turn into water to cool themselves down? car designed pocket pussy? I dont mind tech, But its almost too much these days.
