Widely regarded as one of the most usable exotic sports cars of its era, the second-generation R8 paired Lamborghini-derived V10 performance with Audi’s renowned everyday drivability and Quattro all-wheel-drive system. This example has been elevated further through the addition of a Dallas Performance twin turbo kit, transforming the high-revving 5.2-liter V10 into an even more formidable powerplant while retaining the responsiveness and character that define the platform. Dallas Performance kits begin at around 1000 horsepower at a starting cost of around $26,000.
Finished in Suzuka Gray Metallic, the exterior is enhanced by the desirable Carbon Exterior Package, featuring a carbon fiber front lip, carbon side blades, carbon convertible top compartment lid, carbon engine compartment trim, and rear decklid spoiler. Additional details include a black soft convertible top, black 20-inch forged wheels, and red painted brake calipers, giving the car an aggressive yet refined appearance.
Inside, the cabin is trimmed in Express Red leather upholstery with Audi’s Diamond Stitch Leather Package and Carbon Interior Package. Additional features include 18-way power sport seats, a 12.3-inch Audi Virtual Cockpit digital instrument cluster, and a power-folding convertible top, blending modern technology with exotic grand touring comfort.
Power comes from the twin-turbocharged 5.2-liter V10, paired with Audi’s 7-speed dual-clutch transmission and legendary Quattro all-wheel-drive system. The result is a dramatically enhanced performance experience while maintaining the balance, refinement, and drivability the R8 platform is known for.
This 2017 Audi R8 Spyder is offered with one key. Combining striking specification, extensive carbon fiber options, and Dallas Performance twin-turbocharged V10 upgrades, this R8 Spyder represents a highly modified and visually distinctive example of Audi’s flagship supercar.
