Audi R8 GT Spyder
Following the Coupé, the discovery here. Audi is presenting the convertible version of his car, the R8 Spyder GT, repeating verbatim the same commercial operation launched the Coupe: a series of 333 numbered pieces. Homeless, but a soft-top, this two-seater has the weight components using carbon fiber and said performance-boggling: from 0 to 100 in 3.8 seconds thanks to the thrust of its engine with 560 horsepower.

The canopy fabric – a fabric roof that opens and closes in 19 seconds, even running at a speed of 50 km / h – is not the only peculiarity of this aesthetic R8 Spyder GT, which has Dual front splitter lip, side flaps on the front bumper, plus a speaker and LED tail lights with clear glass cover. Inside, the interior blacks are gray or red embroidered stitching, while Alcantara upholstery also extend behind the wheel. Bucket seats on the frame material with fiberglass reinforced plastic (to further reduce the weight), at the request becomes the upholstery in leather finish.
Upon request, the standard equipment list also includes LED lights, front and rear, automatic air-conditioning, navigation Top of the range, and between the various interfaces for the driver is also included lap timer. Obviously, compared to the basic service – at a price that probably will exceed the € 207,000 – you can always do more, why Audi has prepared the list of gadgets such as the optional Bang & Olufsen stereo, bluetooth interface with microphone integrated seat belts, seats and carbon fiber coatings with embroidered logo.
And if the option in an option, a wealthy client can have fun stuff for the R8 Spyder GT, designers, the mission was exactly the opposite, make a car as light as possible coming to keep the weight just 1,640 pounds, 85 less than the version from which it is born, the R8 FSI quattro Spyder. For this reason, the motor frame is made of lightweight magnesium, the soft top compartment cover on the rear and sides are made of carbon fiber composite material, as well as spoiler and rear bumper. As for gear, wheels and brakes, even there the engineers had a hand with the goal of lowering the needle of the scale.
Even the V10 chassis of this R8 has received special treatment, with the setting down of the drive that 1 cm and the wheels driven by double triangular aluminum arms. ESP is fitted instead of a sport and mapping can be completely disabled. Carbon-ceramic discs are concerned, then, to hold off the exuberance of R8 Spyder GT, driven by the V10 FSI with 560 hp and 540 Nm of torque – the electronic revised – that wanting can push it – according to Audi-up to a speed of 317 km / h.7.
Standard this engine is mated to a six-speed R Tronic gearbox, but requires additional manual mode enabling it to handle the speed to your liking: using the shift lever or using the steering wheel controls. Thanks to rapid change and the help of the “launch control” the R8 Spyder GT gets so to burn the 0-100 in 3.8 seconds, two tenths less than the coupé sister.
