The 2016 Audi R8 V10 Plus is so new that you might as well have to wipe off a layer of afterbirth before getting behind the wheel. The second generation of Audi’s mid-engined sportsbeast is hitting European dealerships now, however, and that means that it was inevitable that one day someone would end up flipping one and crashing it. That day is today.
Rejoice, people who love images of beautiful destruction, because this is the day that hath been foretold. Wail, cry, and gnash your teeth, people who don’t, because today is just bad, in your world.
It’s a little unclear what exactly happened here at the moment, but the Instagram user who posted these photos, lovedbeard, writes that someone came to his son’s Audi dealership, asked to take out an R8, like you do, clipped a curb, and immediately crashed down onto the roof.
(You should actually just be able to read that yourself on the photo description I’ve embedded, but if you haven’t and waited to read my re-hashing of it, whatever.)
Today is the day that the first 2016 Audi R8 has been crashed. Tomorrow begins the second day of this joyous and/or mournful holiday, probably:
