Ten 2018 Audi R8 V10 plus Coupe Competition Package For You To Fight Over

In only a few short weeks, the most hardcore performance-oriented Audi R8 will be available, if only for a few seconds.

We say a few seconds when we know they’ll likely be gone by the time I send this story in. All gone because only ten of these unique R8s will be built for the American market. And when we say unique, we mean that all ten will be identical.

Listen to the 2018 Audi R8 Spyder roar

The idea behind the Competition Package is weight reduction and increased downforce. All said, the R8’s curb weight will be reduced by almost 30 lbs, which they boast. At odds with the whole idea behind this limited edition R8 is the fact that a full leather package (dashboard and door panels) and a 13-speakers, 550 watts Bang & Olufsen sound system are included… But what do we know?

All 2018 Audi R8 V10 plus Coupe Competition Package car will be Suzuka Grey, get the Black optic exterior package, dynamic steering, Carbon fiber aero kit, performance brake upgrade, three-way adjustable coilover suspension and beautiful 20-inch matte black milled-cut wheels.

Pricing for the car is set at $237,350.
