2009 Audi R8 V10 Captured Totally Uncloaked

We've seen a lot of the 2009 Audi R8 V10 since breaking the first pics and providing video of it running last month. But now we get an unblemished look from Autoweek.nl at the new hotness from the four rings in all its re-powered glory. The new R8, with it's 5.2 liter V10, flared-out side-blade, and modified nose is definitely swoon-worthy, as evidenced by these unbelievably clean shots apparently snapped outside of Quattro GmbH in Germany. We can't wait to see the times this thing posts on the Nurburgring.

Audi R8 V10 Caught Testing On Nurburgring

Adding to our recent video proof of the new R8 V10, plus still shots, we've got even more 5.2L Audi goodness. And just to prove they're serious, Audi's giving the new beast a shakedown on everyone's favorite test track, the Nurburgring Nordschleife. While we don't have lap times yet, rest assured that we're working on arranging a triple shootout with the Zonda F and the Nissan GT-R. Hey, a guy can dream.

Audi R8 V10 Video Discovered, Uploaded By A Menace Named Dennis?

When we brought you the still images of the Audi R8 V10, we could only dream of hearing that siren song of 5.2 liter V10 delight. Now we can. The forum fan-boys at AudiWorld discovered this video lurking in the fodder that is MySpace uploaded by someone named Dennis. Either Dennis is a marketing shill and we've been had by viral advertising, or he's got some serious explaining to do. In either case Audi R8 V10!

Audi R8 To Get 5.2-Liter V10 Engine, Here's The Proof

Those rumors about a 5.2-liter, 500 HP-plus V10 being installed in the Audi R8? Yeah, we can pretty much confirm those today. Check out these crystal-clear driveway photos coming from an anonymous tipster of the new and improved Audi supercar. We're told this is a pre-production mule being loaned out to trusted current R8 owners. In addition to two more cylinders, expect a revised front bumper, rear bumper, exhaust tips and side blades for the upgraded Überfahrzeug.

Audi Q7 Coastline Concept Is A Real Land Yacht

Just in case you thought the new Q7 V12 TDI wasn't ridiculous enough with its 757.5 lb-ft of torque, Audi has made this nautically-themed Q7 Coastline Concept. Though we've gotta say that while this thing certainly is a land yacht, Audi missed the boat by not fully capitalizing on the maritime theme. First off, any ego-stroking self-respecting yacht owner needs a captain's hat, and plainly there is none such haberdashery included. There's also a very embarrassing lack of a "tender" vehicle; you would think that with all that V12 TDI torque you'd at least be able to tow along a Rinspeed sQuba or two. And while all the dark smoked oak trim is nice, we also wish the steering wheel was wooden with external spoke-handles. Oh, and the gear selector should be a big, brass lever. However there is one extravagance the we really like on the Q7 Coastline: the sun deck, which is just perfect for catching a tan... oh wait, that's the roof.

Detroit Auto Show: Audi R8 To Feature V12 TDI Engine, We Sort Of Called It

When all of those R8 mules started bursting into flames the blogosphere bit down pretty hard on a description from Quattro GmbH that they were packing V10 twin-turbo'd engines. We quickly posted a response from J.F. Musial claiming that we should expect anything but that V10 for the next R8. Thanks to an embargo break from Auto Motor und Sport, we now know that the R8 coming to Detroit will be featuring a V12 TDI turbodiesel. Booyah! It's good to be skeptical. More »

V10-Powered Audi R8

While we've had some fun with the current-gen R8 as powered by the 4.2L FSI V8, we're more than pumped to see that the brits at evo were able to snap some pics of a thinly disguised R8 said to maybe be carrying the new 5.2L V10. They claim that the new V10 will be available in late 2008 and should put out numbers in excess of the M Power V10 currently doing duty in the M5/M6. More »
