The Audi R8 Has A Price Tag

Audi announced this car some months ago, but most of the details were yet to be decided. Autoblog is reporting that the new R8 will have a 420 hp V8 4.2L FSI engine and rear-biased quattro(R) all-wheel drive system, with a zero to 60 mph time of 4.4 seconds and a top speed of 187 mph, making the R8 is the fastest Audi ever produced. The lightweight aluminum frame and body and 44:56 front-to-rear weight distribution give the R8 tremendous handling capabilities, with the balance expected of a mid-engine sports car. Price starts at $109,000.
