2015 Audi R8 4.2 quattro

Before turbochargers took over. Before electrification blurred sensation. There was the Audi R8 V8—a supercar built around sound, balance, and mechanical purity. This 2015 Audi R8 V8, finished in Brilliant Black over a matching black interior, represents the final evolution of Audi’s first-generation R8—arguably the most emotionally engaging version ever built. With just 30,195 miles, this R8 remains a beautifully preserved example of a modern classic, blending everyday usability with exotic performance that still stirs the soul. Naturally Aspirated V8 – Pure, Unfiltered Power At the heart of the R8 lies Audi’s legendary 4.2-liter FSI V8, a high-revving masterpiece engineered to be felt as much as heard: 430 horsepower 317 lb-ft of torque 8,250-RPM redline 0–60 mph in approximately 4.2 seconds Rear-biased quattro® all-wheel drive for incredible traction Lightning-quick 7-speed S tronic dual-clutch transmission Throttle response is immediate. Power delivery is linear and intoxicating. The exhaust note builds into a symphony that modern forced-induction engines simply can’t replicate. Mid-Engine Balance – Confidence at Any Speed The R8’s mid-engine layout places the V8 directly behind the cabin, delivering exceptional weight distribution and chassis balance: Aluminum Audi Space Frame (ASF) construction for strength and lightness Double-wishbone suspension front and rear Magnetic Ride dampers (if equipped) for adaptive performance tuning Precise steering feedback with exceptional road feel Whether carving back roads or cruising at highway speed, the R8 feels planted, predictable, and utterly confidence-inspiring. Design – Timeless, Aggressive, Iconic The first-generation R8 remains one of the most recognizable supercar designs ever created: Iconic side blades framing the mid-engine layout Low, wide stance with muscular proportions LED lighting signature that defined an era Sculpted bodywork that blends elegance with aggression Finished in Brilliant Black, this R8 is understated yet menacing—letting its shape and presence speak for themselves. Interior – Driver-Focused Luxury Inside, the R8 balances exotic intent with Audi craftsmanship: Black leather sport seats with firm bolstering Aluminum trim accents and R8-specific details Flat-bottom steering wheel for enhanced control Audi MMI infotainment system Dual-zone automatic climate control It’s a cockpit designed to keep the driver connected, comfortable, and fully immersed. Everyday Supercar – A Rare Achievement Unlike many exotics, the R8 is engineered to be driven regularly: Predictable quattro® traction in all conditions Excellent outward visibility Smooth dual-clutch shifting for city driving Rock-solid Audi reliability and build quality It’s a supercar you don’t have to save for special occasions—every drive can be one..
