The rich are not concerned whatever the price of oil,atleast that's what Audi thinks.Audi plan to launch their beauty the R8 in India[end of 2008] high oil prices or not.One look at the car and you would not mind the fact that your fuel bills would be eating up your bank balance faster than the car could transport you from A to B.
In case you are already not familiar about the mid-engined cars specs,they stand at a mind boggling 420hp from a 4163 cc engine.So now you know why I expect the R8 owners investing in petrol pumps of their own[i.e. if they don't one already]
Audi already say they have more than a few prospective customers and its thanks to them Audi is considering the R8 for India.Let us atleast be thankful to them for because of them we will be able to see one of the best cars on the roads today actually driving past us.
Audi have not mentioned about the monstrous R8 diesel[V12 6L tdi engine] which produces a monstrous 493hp and an earth shattering 1000Nm of torque.
