The Audi R8 V10 is one of the supercars on our review wish list. But before we can have a go with the new Audi wundercar, the German carmaker revealed their US 2010 model-year prices. Base price of the all-new Audi R8 V10 model has been put at $146,000. Shipments will start across the country this week.
2010 R8 5.2 FSI quattro V10 version price – excluding $1,200 destination charge, taxes, title, options and dealer charges – is $146,000 for the manual gearbox models, while the R Tronic commands $155,100. Both Audi R8 V8 models aren’t subject to price changes.
