"Even though I'd seen it on TV several times I was inspired by watching this advert at the cinema
recently, Ooooh :crazy:....now if you don't get a "tingle" in the downstairs department upon hearing
the V10 Symphony then you Sir have no soul. Take the Audi R8 5.2 FSI Quattro out to the Nurburgring
and conduct your very own Concerto :)."


CAR: Audi R8 5.2 FSI Quattro '09.
LOCATION: Nurburgring (All versions incl weather change).
UNIQUE REQUIREMENTS: No static shots.....make that V10 sing.

Final entry



Edit: Argh, I think I used the wrong car :ouch: Update coming...

That is the correct R8. Amazing by the way, for a two year old photo back from the ol' days. 👍
 
No, actually I noticed the upload date on Flickr. :lol:

:lol: Interesting! That was actually the date I took the pic in photomode. Not the upload date. Never noticed that feature before...dont know how that is possible when I edited the pic and then saved it.
 
Some very nice entries so far. :) 👍



Final Entry

Vorsprung durch Technik





 
First time checked back here since posting theme, amazing entries people 👍👍 such a good variety of styles, a high quality poll will result no doubt :)
 
The dealership white for the R8 is absolutely stunning. It especially looks great driving around with the sun glaring upon it.
