Audi R8 V10 Plus – Mid Engined and Sonorous

 

For a street car, it’s hard to argue with the R8 and harder to argue with the sound of a V10 mid-engined supercar for the Volks.  Say what you will about V8’s, the V10’s hold a special place in my heart due to the song it sings.  The second generation 610hp naturally aspirated carbon fiber R8 breaks the 200hp barrier and features Audi’s “Virtual Cockpit” infotainment system to keep your eyes on the critical dash area.  The grip is insane, but the responsiveness to throttle input is finally at the level needed to become one with the car.  For driver’s who want as much feedback as possible, this combination is definitely an experience to covet.
