Price: US $135,000.00 SOLD OUT
So before you get too excited about finding the R8 deal of the century (which may indeed be true), this car has a rebuilt title. It had an unplanned altercation with a palm tree in South Florida. The damage was contained to the front frunk area â no mechanical or suspension damage. Yet the insurance company totaled the car. Go figure. The tree hit dead center at what appears to be about 30 miles per hour, which confined the damage to the frunk. As evidence, neither headlight was damaged.I acquired this vehicle to restore as my personal vehicle. I am a retired MIT-trained mechanical engineer. I worked with my local Audi dealer to perform the repairs, using only Audi factory parts. The only damaged body panels were the hood and front bumper, which were both replaced with factory new parts â no bondo or body work. The frunk was repaired with factory parts. All of this was done per the specifications in the Audi body repair manual. I have a complete photo log of the process.The color is Suzuka Grey Metallic. It is the original color. The car is mechanically flawless. No trouble codes or other issues. All body panel gaps are perfect. I restored it with the intent to make it my personal car, so no expense was spared. It aligns and drives perfectly. It had its 20,000 mile Audi service performed (based on time, not mileage), so it is fully up to date.The only reason I am selling it is that I enjoyed the restoration experience so much that I have purchased two more 2020 salvage title R8s that I am restoring to their former glory. I have a large garage (with a lift), but I can only fit two project cars. Thus the need to sell this one.The interior has minor wear commensurate with its mileage. Nothing unusual. The wheels have zero wheel rash â not a single scratch. The front right tire has a nick in the sidewall extended rubber lip that doesnât affect performance. All four tires are in excellent shape and are Michelin Pilot Sport 4S.This is the high performance Spyder plus quattro model â 602 HP, Laser LED lights, carbon fiber brakes, full carbon fiber interior and exterior trim (side blades, side skirts, split front spoiler, rear spoiler, exhaust surrounds), B&O sound, dynamic steering, full leather diamond sport seats, black optics package, and CarPlay. I upgraded the steering wheel to carbon fiber as well (although I can switch it back to the factory wheel if you prefer). I also added a front carbon split spoiler. The original sticker was $221,040 â see the attached window sticker.Note that I left the Audi logo off of the hood. I personally prefer no logo, but I have a new Audi logo in black that I can install if you prefer it.This is an amazing car looking for an equally amazing buyer. It is a real head turner.
