Abt Sportsline’s R8 is one of those amazing supercars which is able to bring the magic to the experienced exclusive driver. The new supercar can easily compete with dream cars like Lamborghini’s Gallardo, Ferrari’s F430 or Porsche’s 911 Turbo.
The pure sang racing genes are recognised by the first press reviews which agree that the Kempten –based tuner managers have done a great job in developing a great serial model like R8.Roadholding is a special feature of the R8 and is achieved through, unique design of the rear with four inclined exhaust end pipes, rear diffuser and extravagant rear wing.The sideblades and side skirts developed especially for the new ABT R8 enhance aerodynamics. Downforce is improved with add-on parts from super sports cars in the Allgäu-region. This way perfect balance of the front and rear axis is provided and this is a characteristic found only in a few exclusive sports cars.The body is constructed using carbon-fibre parts with high precision and attention to detail and this way it provides great weight reduction and weight distribution, very important feature for high speed range cars.
High tech design touches from Kempten –competing with from Maranello or Sant’Agata-Bolognese- will make this car a dream come true for the passionate top class drivers.The engine is a 4.2 litre V8 supercharger, which will bring ecstasy with its 530 Bavarian horsepower, which means 110 HP difference from the serial model. 3.9 seconds is how much it takes the Abt to get from 0 to 100 km/h, being able to reach a top speed of 317 Km/h.As mandatory as the expectations of the driver are, they can certainly be fulfilled by the adjustable in height, pressure and rebound means of suspension.
