First Drive: 2011 Audi R8 Spyder 5.2 FSI Quattro

[Sh0SUPERMAN]

shut the music and crank up the car sounds. we don't watch car videos to listen to garbage!!!

[buttnut1080]

I thought the car's shit brown color would ruin the video but nope, Motortrend never fails to do that. God forbid they actually talk about what the car drives. No. They hire some bitch boy intern to read of a piece of paper Audi sent them.

[noblinger]

WTF Brown?? 

[Concordemoment]

GET RID OF THE ADDS

[kyleforpresident77]

As we drove topless...

[kimjani]

Ohhh boyyy.....the car looks so awesome without a roof and without those hideous silver panels on the sides that come with the coupe!!!! A real poseurs car!!!

[monkeylabs1]

the original R8 looks better

[DarkEclips]

I'd rather they just release a R8 LMS body kit

[burninrock24]

Im pretty sure that the chick came with the car. an r8 gets you women. an r8 spyder gets you any woman.

[petergelderplom]

coupaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay not coupe

[ianfagerstrom]

I don't like the dialogue in this video at all. It's trying too hard.

[250sportrax]

IF u can even afford it, why not go for the Lambo cousin? Who knows...

[7075403942]

"even as we motored topless"

[ferrari967]

This is In The Iron Man 2 Movie this car is beautiful

[7075403942]

That movie is out? I havent seen any commercials or anthing...

[miglior57]

i never ever place convertibles over coupes, but i will admit, that shit is sexy

[AirPlaneNinja]

i think the coupe is way better cuz the convertible just doesnt look as unique

[whiteboy5480]

i'd still rather have a gallardo convertible

[jflexe99]

Of course! But this is still sedate/sexy

[stoicman31]

I like the coupe better.

[brute750force]

looks sexy with the top down

[SillyAfro]

woman driving??? hmmm does motortrend know about the "women drivers" videos on youtube???

[FordsBetter516]

hm. the seatbelt mic thing seems kinda dumb. its a sports car. even though its an audi..i mean, come on...

[Hummerfan87]

1: i understand the mic on the seatbelt but it seams like a dumb idea.

and 2: it may be brown but the color suits the car nicely

[muffinman127]

man. i just noticed. its fucking BROWN! wtf.!? brown? on an exotic car? OMGWTFBBQ!?

[Stevo4517]

Brown is the hottest new color out this year. If you were to go to an auto show, like the Chicago Auto Show, you would have seen all of the premium brands display some varaiation of brown on one of their cars that was the focal point of the display. I think it's cool - something different for a change!!

[Cybergig00]

Zonda F Roadster

[Zcarbon]

This is not a "First Drive" Its some too-articulate guy reading off a spec sheet over a promo video.

[buttnut1080]

@Zcarbon Welcome to motortrend.

[Saini214]

Sex

[MisterTiberius]

why you lettin the woman drive?

[CalebRulez2]

The narrator is just reading from Frank Marcus's review in this month's Motor Trend Magazine.

[paradoxdesigns]

i usually hate convertibles but this looks nice.

[asdfgoogle]

omg... so damn sexy!

[champ1193]

good looking vehicle

[heartlesspinto]

Get that chick out of the driver's seat of that car. She probably can't tell the difference between this and her vw beetle convertible.

[w00ter92]

@heartlesspinto niceeee

[nolajeep]

isn't that an audi promo video with MT audio?

[eddieweinburg]

pretty much

[G3r4pro]

thats wat it sounded like to me lol

[sexyboi142]

damn...i wish the R8s were in an afforable range like all the other audis....oh well one day

[champ1193]

uhmmm... what? how many audi's do you actually consider affordable? because to me its pretty much zero

[zeal117]

Simply Beautiful!

[TamiyaDude]

I actually saw this in Iron Man 2 trailer

[wfangnxd117]

gorgeous

[PhatsoJuggalo806]

that car is clean one of the best euro cars to me

[k1ng617]

that car is beautiful

[hms888]

What a stupid review.. Show us the features.. not talking

[MaxPower824]

hey, that's the same place as the first gallardo spyder was first tested.

the r8 spyder is much prettier than the coupe.

[mohammadVTC]

its miami my friend

[saudikid]

why the fuck is a women driving the car? she will fuck it up

[seroyer2]

German Chicks can drive, and the she better to look at then a man.

[GermanDreamRecords]

wow nice, where was this video shot???

[Z3RO0RD1E]

This guy pronounces his words too much.

[FuriousPumpkin]

yeah he's probably inexperienced.

[andy993]

R8 coupe looks better. I think getting rid of the side blades was a bad idea.

[Howie262]

probably the only Convertible i would ever buy/drive.

i like the fact they didnt add weight during the engineering process...

usaly convertibles add around 200 or more pounds to the car because either the extra stability measures or the mechanism and batteries...

Great looking car. only convertible id drive.

[Padge92]

I WANT THIS CAR !!!

=)

[ViperVenomACR]

GR8

[theguynumber9]

car looks nice dude

[LeoT416]

i love the spyder but my heart remains on the v10 coupe

but spyder=sexy

[nmunmnm]

bitch wait a minute, why is a girl driving the car?

[TFSmash]

motortrend stop trying to copy top gear 's video style, their style works because of th narration and with a boring narrator, this is not working. keep doing what you did up to this point, dont try to imitate the best, be original.

[Arkhangelsk1]

I think that i saw that car in the film "I Robot", cool car.

[youdollpete]

Terrible narration. very distracting.

[Bahamuttiamat]

why is a woman driving it!?!?

[XFXBoard]

@Bahamuttiamat more attractive

[maserati199]

I still would rather have the V10 coupe, sorry I'm not sold on this

[Chugabun]

Gay Car!

[ventureandcivic]

why im not rich =(

[saavaa]

fugly color!

[AlternativeUses]

this isn't a first drive. its a first look. it only has audi provided footage. it sounds like a robot is reading the press material

[epheseus]

Third, narration, inflection and timbre, was quite painful. Nonetheless, the R8 dragged me through...

[joshcfriesen]

yeah he sounds like a robot.

[112namrepus]

Wow this guy needs to get laid! He sounds like a geeky homo student.

[EdgarLopez]

second

[soulless324]

First.

Stupid crazy car.
