Audi R8 LMS

Jan 19

Any car enthusiast dreams of racing. It is part of what makes automobiles so much fun. The thrill of speed; the moment you get excited about acceleration and the uncontrollable smile that comes across your face when you press the gas pedal. This feeling can be felt while just driving through windy roads on the way to work or crusing down the 101 on vaction… but what if you could get that same feeling by just looking at a car?
When I first saw the 2009 R8 LMS I was put back and in total “aww.” Audi had created the perfect machine for excitement. They have taken the already amazing mid engine R8 and given it a defined purpose, racing. Though the price tag may be heavy, so is the 500 horsepower and to many, there is no price tag on true performance. The pictures we have seen of the 2009 R8 LMS are beautiful, but the sound and vision of this machine in action can only be expressed with video.

Audi has a short memory. How can they claim the R8 is the first consumer car with the name and genes of a race car? Have they forgotten the urquattro?

1. Performance

Every part in the machine counts.

With our vehicles being developed from the ground up around the world famous & award winning Quattro All-wheel drive, it is no wonder we are the leader in performance.

With countless victories and developments in Le Mans, Rally racing, Pikes Peak, and touring car championships, we build the most competitive All-wheel drive cars in the world. If you are looking for that unfair advantage, welcome to Audi, you have found it.

2. Safety

Why die, when you can live?

Brought to you by the company that pioneered safety standards and crash testing almost 100 years ago, with Audi there is no compromise in safety.

Available with technical advancements such as side guard head protection, Side Assist, adaptive headlights, three point safety belts and many other award winning safety systems as well as L.E.D lighting.

3. Design

Everyone wants to look good right?

Bold dynamic lines with moving surfaces, coupe like design and an aggressive stance on the road whether moving or standing still.

Audi has set itself apart from the rest of the industry with driver oriented cockpits and the leader of interior craftsmanship, materials and fit and finish. Keep in mind our extensive use of aluminum, space frame technology and low center of gravity give you that true Audi experience inside and out.

4. Versatility

Sometimes abundance is not enough.

If you want it, Audi has it. And if you have heard of it, it is most likely an option. Audi builds the most versatile cars in the world. Four door sedan or sport back, Coupe or Sport utility vehicle, big or small, front wheel drive or Quattro, gas fuel or diesel - and you still have to pick a color.

We build vehicles that will truly win races and pick up the groceries on the way home. If you let an Audi tell you it's story, it will never disappoint or disconnect you from the experience.

5. Value

Yes, fair value exchange does exist.

Whether you go with a new Audi and get a 4-year 50k mile warranty, or the certified pre-owned Audi with the most comprehensive 300 + point inspection and up to 6 years, 100k miles, you will not only get the best car on the market, you will gain piece of mind!

And really, you can't put a price on that.
