Joe, the gearing for the v10 plus is different from the base v10 in that the 7th gear is shorter for the sake of acceleration. The non-plus is definitely the better cruiser.

Get the 'plus' map put on it then seeing as they're identical and you're on to a winner!

Totally agree with you regarding the wheel size. The only reason wheels have to be big sometimes is to fit huge brakes, but I'm sure a 19" wheel does an equally good job as 20" or even bigger ones to fit the brakes though. I think of it this way, have you ever seen an F1 car with such a tiny tyre wall?

I've driven the spyder version with slightly less HP. I ran it around in the Nevada high desert at triple digits for hours. A sublime car. Handles great, gearbox almost as good as a PDK(that' saying something!), and that ENGINE! So linear and smooth.

Good review mate! With regards to the rpm at 70mph, I understand the frustration, but I would bear in mind that it revs to almost 9k! Relative to its redline, 3k rpm is not that bad. Anyways, loved the video, love the car!

Was that Snake Pass in the footage, use it a lot but you rarely get a good run because you get so many peeps driving 10-20mph under the limit. The R8 is one of those cars that looks better in the flesh, it is not worth its value but it is a head turner, that sound is awesome.

Like the color, like the sound. The headliner does indeed seem a bit off - looks like what I have in my 2007 Z4. The 19s in the rear may be more 'practical' but it looks a bit unbalanced. They almost look like drag racing slicks in size vs the fronts.

Love your review Joe, love the car and the sound it makes is amazing. However, having just collected my M2 from Sydney, driven The Great Ocean Road and am now heading for the Barossa Valley. All things considered, including sound and fun, I have to choose the M2. Do yo7 agree?

I’m not sure about the plus- but I have a 2017 standard spyder- fuel economy is actually ok- motorway sees high 20’s, one thing not mentioned is the new models (2016-18) do have cylinder on demand. Anyway- when you’re pushing on you can’t expect more than 10-13mpg. Disagree with the 19’s - needs 20’s

When things were new for Audi, like the full digital cluster, they were LOOOONG ways ahead of the competition. But now... in 2018... competition has finally caught up and to be honest, the UI looks outdated and still the same. The new BMW clusters are on point man! Too bad Audi haven't evolved...
