Ingolstadt's most powerful convertible ever is
making its first U.S appearance at the annual Monterey Car Week, August 18th.
The R8 V10 Plus Spyder is powered by the same 610 PS naturally-aspirated V10 engine found in the R8 LMS race car, while also
boasting a seven-speed S-tronic dual-clutch gearbox.
Add them together and you get a 0 to 96
km/h acceleration time of just 3.3 seconds, making this one of the world's
fastest drop-top supercars. The R8 V10 Plus Spyder also comes with an exclusive
micrommata green exterior, anthracite gray single frame grille, black tailpipe
covers, 19" wheels (20" optional), bucket seats and ceramic brakes,
among many others.
Aside from the V10 Plus Spyder, Audi will also be
showing off their all-new RS5 Coupe and the R8 LMS GT3 in Pebble Beach, as well
as the legendary Audi Sport quattro S1 - 2017 also happens to mark the 30th
anniversary of Walter Rohrl's record run to the top of Pike's Peak inside the
S1.
Also, beginning August 17 and running
through Sunday, August 20, VIP guests will also benefit from Audi's exclusive
driving experience at the Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion. There, guests
will be able to take part in an Audi Sport Performance Drive, behind the wheel of
an R8 V10 around Laguna Seca.
