F80 M3 vs Audi V8 R8

The Automotive Enthusiast · 09-24-2014, 07:55 PM

Doesn't look like the M3 even flinched.

FormulaMMM · 09-24-2014, 07:58 PM

Yep, that's about what I expected. F80's a rocket.

JTO24 · 09-24-2014, 08:00 PM

Silverstone looks good in motion.

Blindside_137 · 09-24-2014, 08:17 PM

Sweet. I wonder how it stacks up to the V10

jim101 · 09-24-2014, 09:07 PM

Amazing

!

I wouldn't have expected that until I drove mine for the first time today!

jim101 · 09-25-2014, 07:59 AM

Came across this one for the sake of comparison

JSCO · 09-25-2014, 08:29 AM

Wow!!

GOLFFRR · 09-25-2014, 08:39 AM

LukasAT · 09-25-2014, 09:44 AM

I would like to see it against the V10. Should be close I guess ..

Rude Boy · 09-25-2014, 10:46 AM

IMPRESSIVE!!

E92 M beats the R8, F80 whoops it. Thanks for posting. Gustav's videos are always a great watch.

hellrotm · 09-25-2014, 11:27 AM

Gustav is a cheery picking asshat.

hellrotm · 09-25-2014, 11:28 AM

F80 performed quite well, the car is sneaky quick.

Hopefully more videos go up, as I am sure that isn't the only car it ran that day.

TurboSid · 09-25-2014, 11:39 AM

guys v8 r8's are slow.

mike@x-ph.com · 09-25-2014, 01:33 PM

Yeah I'm not really sure why everyone on here is so surprised...

The V8 R8 is slower than a RS5 (according to MT) and it's a 6spd manual vs. the DCT of the F80?....pretty much went exactly as expected. Now if this was a V10...different story

VMRWheels · 09-25-2014, 04:00 PM

Wow, did not expect the difference to be that great. Good stuff!

I can't speak for everyone else, but I was 'so surprised' because the E9X didn't come close to tearing away like the F80 did. Accordingly, I thought they'd be more closely matched stock for stock from a roll.
