Default New Audi R8 spotted in CA

Gary! your next ride has arrived!

"As for a little background on the vehicle - when the car debuted at its first auto shows over two years ago, it was a two-seater, mid-mounted 610 HP V-10 supercar. It's rumored that there haven't been many changes to that configuration for the production model. The Audi R8 is said to be released sometime in 2007, but no definite date has been set."

Is it going to have the Gallardo engine or a variation of the Gallardo engine in it?

Looks like shit to me. The show car had style and looks. This just looks like a kit car thatuses Gallardo parts.

It essentially is a Gallardo but with Audi shell on it. I think it looks great.

When the concept car was on the show circuit, it was said to use the blown Audi V8.
