Yes, you read correctly. The germans from MTM are working at a crazy project - an Audi R8 manual with the V10 biturbo engine from the uber RS6. The performance specs are still unknown, but i assume this car will be stupidly fast.

The right car for the right engine and a manual, they are pushing all the right buttons with this car.

Im guessing 725-730 like they have on the RS6, lower weight which is even better.

Gotta give MTM a big pat on the back for attempting this... Hopefully it turns out well...

Looks like that R8 is Matte White as well
