Audi R8 Vinyl Wrap - Satin White

It’s easy to confuse the Audi R8 for what it isn’t, but the Germany did a really good job offering a competitive product. Technically, it’s not a supercar at least not as a 4.2-liter FSI, but few other cars will offer you the same exclusivity for just €110,000 (in Germany).

Sure, it’s not very clean, or economical due to the fact that the 4.2-liter V8 is a bit of antique, but soon you’ll be able to buy one with 450 horsepower instead of 430.

For the fact that it offers quattro traction in combination with a mid-mounted V8, we love the Audi R8, and what’s why we’re pleased to report on a really cool custom job from Russia.

The customization studio of RE-Styling was recently offered a job to wrap an R8 V8 FSI in satin white. This white knight that will surely cruise the streets of Moscow in style has been fitted with carbon fiber accents and a set of 19-inch matte black wheels.

Tyga Golden Chrome Audi R8

There can be no better way out of anonymity than to get a really expensive car and chrome it out. But to go a step further than that would be to take the regular Audi R8 and wrap it with gold foil.

Tyga has the only gold Audio R8 in the United States. What do you think about it? Is it over the top or can you top this with something else. Certainly, Justin Bieber’s silver chrome Fisker Karma comes a close second.

In February, the young rapper made the cover of DUB magazine with this ride and his big Rolls Royce Drophead Coupe, which is red and black. After having one of the most anticipated albums of the year, it’s a bit surprising to see that it’s Tyga’s girlfriend behind the wheel. Not sure if she got her hands on this gold chain as well.

Spyker Force Automtoive Photography recently got a chance to photograph the Audi R8 V10 Spyder in their usual combination of locations. Below you’ll find studio, detail and open air shots of the German supercar along with a bonus short video.

The Audi R8 V10 Spyder was first revealed back in August 2008 before it made its world premiere in Hollywood blockbuster Iron Man II. It entered production soon after a debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show 2009. It features Audi’s 5.2 FSI V10 engine producing 525hp and 530Nm of torque. We expect to see the R8 facelift model later this year or early next year with a replacement to follow in 2014.
