Fuel hike? Credit crunch? World Economy Slowdown? - Neh~~



The Audi R8, the 'slowest' car Audi have ever built (handmade); which is Audi's first foray into the super car league, with a high screaming 8400rpm 4.2 liter V8 engine developing 420hp, midship, coupled with Audi's new 60:40 rear biased Quattro system - IS SOLD OUT WORLDWIDE.

Not only it's sold out, the entire 2009 production was sold out as well, leaving us wondering pessimistically all riches have went to the rich, or all the super rich had lost their money and decided to go for this rather than the Ferrari F430.

Costing $113,000 USD, with all 2009 deliveries costing $117,000; the Audi R8 is not exactly cheap, however sales figures suggests Audi should charge more, and to produce more as it currently has an 18 month waiting list.

Despite the R10, with a 5 liter V10 engine that is confirmed for production, the R8 is still selling forever strongly, and if Porsche took over VAG and forced Audi to stop the production of R8, those who're still hesitating better order yours now.
