>it’s notit is. that’s why it’s discontinued
>>28920814And does it meet the EURO 7 standard?
>>28920847who cares. and if it doesn’t: other manufacturers can meet it, so why can’t audi?
>>28920814It wasn't underrated, it was overpriced. For the entry level model's price tag of $150K+ you could buy other cars that were better. It died for the same reason the GT-R died, poor sales due to overinflated price.
>>28920889it’s a less cramped Huracan. if anything it was too cheap
>>28920889other supercars are doing fine despite being more expensive and FAR less reliable. And I doubt other supercars are selling any better than the GTR or R8. explain that
>>28920934A camaro is less cramped more practical handles better and simply does more with less while being a 3rd of the price. the R8 under performed and was another glorified gucci mobile.
>>28920942a Camaro is a V8 shitbox slapped together by unskilled workers using chink materials
>>28920942so in essence just like any other supercar. you might not know this because you’re poor, but supercars are super soft and handle like shit on track. they’re meant to be driven daily by wealthy folks. those people don’t want to compromise ride quality for trackability
>>28920945So are VAG products.>>28920948The Camaro is riding on a cadillac chassis, with state of the art magneride. it'll likely be more comfortable than the VW.
>>28920954>so are VAG products Bentley?
>>28920814What's the maintenance look like on R8s?I've been seeing manual ones show up in the $100K range.
>>28921113its a mid engine supercar. but its said to be one of the most reliable and daily-drivable ones out there
>>28920942/thread>>28921113Anything in the vicinity of the engine needing to be repaired or replaced means dropping the entire drivetrain lmao
>>289209426'8 here.I am comfier in an R8 than a Camaro.Also, the Camaro felt like a korean toy in comparison.t. tried a shitload of cars to find comfy ones
>>28921051another VAG brand, so no. if you want quality, get something from Honda.
>>28921140>hybrid slop>rattling interiorkek
>>28921140>handcrafted with the highest quality materials you can find>doodoo qualityyou have never even been near a bentley in your entire life
>>28920954the R8 also uses magnetic ride dampers
>>28921123>means dropping the entire drivetrain lmaoNot hard with a lift.Otherwise impossible with a normal garage
>>28921172better than VAG slop.>>28921173>handcrafted by bongsthis is not a good thing. british hands have never hand built anything of good quality.>you have never even been near a bentleyI have. they're gaudy nigger chariots you can easily find in the ghetto because they lose more than half their value as soon as the warranty is up. they aren't special. there's more to quality than throwing studs and wood on a POS. like the car actually working for example.
>>28920850>Other manufacturersBMW Z4 is deadGolf R no longer has Manual (GTI also no manual)AUDI killing 5 cylinderYour pants are about to get really upset when Americans get all the cool cars and they go back to having nothing. At least when they pulled this shit before they still got something like the Audi S4 had a diesel engine. It still sucked compared to the petrol engine that the USA got but at least it was something. Now they get nothing
>>28921204>he’s loitering in ghettos I’ve heard enough
>underrated cars>thread turns into lame benchracing I don't think a Camaro SS has been compared to an Audi R8 in history until now, and I don't think anybody considering buying either one would even look in the direction of the other.As we're talking Alpha chassis supremacy I will nominate the Cadillac ATS-V, however. It was largely regarded as a better track vehicle than an F30 M3, and with the Alpha chassis being benchmarked off a E46 M3 for "feel" I'd argue it almost does a better job of being an M3/M4 than the real thing. Even more so with the subsequent gens. It's only flaws were really that lame CUE system. It's more of a shame that since transforming the ATS into the CT4, the coupe variant was lost as well.
>>28921269The Camaro simply mogs everything that comes out of yurop.
>>28921274
>>28921113>What's the maintenance look like on R8s?The engine has to come out to change the alternator. Timing chains are maintenance items on these engines and guess where those live. This is partly why it failed. If you're going to pay Lambo tier maintenance and repair costs on an Audi you might as well just the Lambo.
>>28920942Why did the camaro lose on laguna seca
>>28921435because its the only good track on theire that actually matters
>>28921487>VAG nigger copelol
>>28921435>why did the less powerful car lose to the more powerful onewhy is the car with 150 more HP lose at all anywhere? why are europeans shit at making cars.
>>28921641Why is it less powerful must not be a good car
>>28920814The facelift was a mistake.
don’t you ever mention that sub korean quality shitheap again when the mighty R8 is on the table
>>28921890could not care less about some jewish "score" on quality. call me when your vag shitheap doesn't catch fire.
>>28922086ok lil bro
>>28922089>car crash>not even a sixth genlol
>>28922086>>28922096>tune car to 2000hp>explodesshit happens
>>28922099you think the R8 convertible likely owned by a basket ball player or stacy is tuned?
>>28920889They built it to be wrenchable that's worth a lot
>>28922384of course. those people are obsessed with bragging rights. and the R8 is one of the most popular platforms to make thousands of HP with, leading to retards pushing their luck
>>28922391>basket ball americans and stacy who doesn't even care about cars beyond the badge are the most tuner inclinedretard.>and the R8 is one of the most popular platforms to make thousands of HP with,Not by a long shot. it's anything with a small block chevy. for every 1 R8 pushing four figure horsepower there are 100 small block chevies out there. and there are 20 poopras.1000 HP R8s only show up in street racing videos. you'll almost never see them at drag week.
>>28920948I did not know that.
Always liked these cars. RIP in piece.
>>28922414I even have a 1600hp one lol and I daily it
>>28920934better margins when sold as a lambo, no reason for VAG to compete with itself
>>28921890I wonder what the percentage of "professional reviews" and owner reports are that were taken into consideration
