Audi Burns Retinas With Its Awesome R8 FSI


Not all news out of the Detroit auto show is green, where it seems absolutely everyone is showing off a hybrid or an EV or a car that runs on sunshine and smiles. Some of the news is red. Really red.

Audi burned retinas when it pulled the sheet off its stunning R8 FSI, which is basically a Lamborghini Gallardo drivetrain wrapped in R8 awesomeness. Normally it would be the reverse (viz; Pagani), and this orientation might cause some consternation, but to our eye it works. It's sexy as hell and you simply cannot argue with a V10 engine putting down 525 horsepower through all-wheel drive.
