APR Audi R8

The Audi R8 modified by APR was exposed at SEMA Tuning Show, in Michelin stand.

The list with the changes which were brought to this model isn’t available, yet, but I can bet that, besides the optical tuning, there is sure an increased power.
I can only offer you a set of photos.

Amazing Audi, don’t you think?

Audi RS4 will disappear?

BMW M3 and Mercedes C63 AMG could have more buyers from their rival, Audi.

Why would this happen?

It seems that there are many rumors which tell that Audi RS4 will be out of production, by the end of 2007.
First out of production will be the Berlin model, then the Avant and then the coupe.
I think this is bad news for fans, which are going to suffer and the only thing that they can do is to buy other models from the same category, like: BMW M3 and Mercedes C63 AMG.
Or, if they can’t renounce of integral traction, the only variants are: Mitsubishi Lancer Evo X or Subaru Impreza WRX STi.
