Love it, sounds great but does anyone know if you can improve the sound like you can with Astons by taking a fuse out???

No, go with the Audi way of having less noise and be more classy.

We are talking about a sports car here are we not? A sports car should stimulate the senses, R8 sounds great, I would like to overide the eu appeasing low rev band silent mode.

Do that and I'll personally come round and kick it until the plates fall off*

I won't, but somebody should - it's tacky, and not becoming of such an awesome machine

Stunning, but why would you want to make it louder? its perfect as it is IMHO. Can hear my dads R8 from at least 1/4 mile away at full chat, and its just right when sticking it into the garage at night.

lovely car, i like the R8, i drove it but i have to say i didnt like it enough to swap the practicality of my RS4 avant for it, i sat down and really thought is it worth spending twice the money for half the seats and practicality?

Besides, i still love the juvenile comedy of shocked joe public at the lights in a estate car.
