Audi R8 Spyder V10 Plus

[baronbennyt]

It's snowing so I did the really sensible thing and add this Audi R8 Spyder V10 Plus to the stable! Unlike the Porsche 991.1 GT3RS and Cayman R (see elsewhere on Readers' Cars) it won't be going to many race circuits, but rather used for Sunday morning blasts and European road trips. Let's hope 2023 brings with it a decent summer...

Delivery will be sometime in January so further details then. In the meantime, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year fellow PistonHeads.

That’s nice. Was looking at one the other day in that colour. Must have been listed wrong though. Said something like Texas Yellow? Obviously isn’t yellow, but wondered what is was. Maybe GVE in London had it?

I bought the car off Redline Specialist Cars. The exterior colour is either Goodwood Green or Monterey Green. I need to check with Audi Guildford when it arrives with me. Regardless, I'm a big fan of the hue!

What a lovely car!

Enjoy some roof down blasts.

Not really a fan of convertibles, but that is an awesome colour combination (in fact basically what I made in the new Lotus configurator) and looks sooo much better without black wheels. Enjoy!

Great car and I love the colour combo.

My mate had the throttle locks remapped out of his v10 and it really came alive.

Your other cars are great too…well done!

Lovely motor! Google RE Performance for servicing and upgrades.

Amen to that, looks fabulous in that shade and the interior looks really fresh. Can't wait to see more when it arrives!

Great choice, what a stunning colour combination.

These really are brilliant cars, one of the last V10s we will probably ever see.

Stunning car, incredible spec, massive congrats on your new purchase!

Oooh. Proper. And all the better for having wheel coloured wheels.

Bash the VIN into this when you get it and it'll give you a breakdown of all the options and colour codes: https://www.vindecoderz.com/EN/Audi

And a lovely colour it is too, really classy combo. Very refreshing to see one not in the default monochrome shades.

Congratulations- a lovely Colour combination too!

Lovely car and a great edition to your lineup.

I recognise the pics from an old evo article.

Very useful, thank you.

What a wonderful spec. I'm not much of an Audi man, but i can make exception for that.

Won't work, unfortunately. VAG don't release that data for free (Least of all because that's an Exclusive Paint so not listed on Erwin).

OP - your car is Monterey Green through Audi exclusive. I believe that's formerly a press car also, and has lots of lovely pictures around online.

Very tasteful

What a lovely tasteful colour combination.

That’s a lovely colour combo. I like the R8 and love the way the V10 sounds.

Enjoy.
