Autobild: Audi R8 vs Porsche 997 4S

[Just_me]

AUDI PORSCHE

420hp / 355 hp
0–100 km/h 4,5 s 4,6 s
0–130 km/h 7,1 s 7,2 s
0–200 km/h 15,5 s 16,0 s

Elastizität 60–100 km/h 4,8 s (4. gear) 5,4 s (4. gear)
Topspeed 295 km/h 294 km/h

Laptime: 2.03,52 min / 2.05,78 min

Base rice: 104.400 € 96.717 €

Finally are in the Porsche 44 years sports car experience and still more Le-Mans-successes, than AUDI has them. At the monument also the R8 cannot shake 911. Clearly, he brings the sports car world in disorder, is noticeable madly and roars by the lanes like a Italo Exot. Also on the racing course it can convince. But is not enough all. The better "round around lucky sports car" is the Porsche. And clearly more economically is it also.






















The result of AUTO picture editor Joerg Maltzan: "so easily none of the base pushes a Elfer. At the monument also the R8 cannot shake 911. Clearly, he brings the sports car world in disorder, is noticeable madly and roars by lanes like a Italo Exot. Also on the racing course it can convince. But is not enough all: The better ' round around lucky sports car ' is the Porsche."

Any track times.

I'd probably go for the Audi R8 in this case, tough I'd like to see another couple of tests.

Or maybe not.

WOW Porsche scoring extra for better price, trunk space and fuel consumption over an Audi !!!

Tight comparsion and that proves that both of these vehicles are excellent.

Personally, I'll take the R8.

I'd take the R8 anyday, it's more special.

Thanks for posting this, well this isn't the first time the R8 goes down against Porsche... & maybe that's fine ? Cause who will the average R8 driver be ?

I'll tell you, She or He will be "the one" - The speciale people, and they are special inside of an R8, who has a car more special than a Zonda? In this price-class (for the moment) and so on..

I'll promise the R8 will be a legend & when the V12 TDI arrives -
- Car of the World

Audi R8 always a winner inside my heart.

I could be wrong, but I seem to remember hearing somewhere the LED light package was like 5 grand, sounds wrong though!

Also you can get the engine surrounds all in carbon fiber, with a similar price tag!
