Audi R8: Spy video!

We found a nice spy video of the Audi R8 over at Inside Line. A must see! Just follow the "Read more" link.
We got our first shots of the 2008 Audi R8 prototype months ago and needless to say we were pretty impressed with its similarity to the Le Mans concept from the 2003 Frankfurt Motor Show. Now, our exclusive spy video gives you an idea of just how nuts this Audi sports car will be as it lays down some hot laps on the Nürburgring.
The R8's ability to rip through the corners of Germany's most famous test track shouldn't come as much of a surprise as it's basically a rebodied Lamborghini Gallardo. Everything from the aluminum space frame to the all-wheel-drive system is from the Lambo (Audi owns Lamborghini). The prototype in this video is even using Gallardo wheels, but our more recent photos show a more traditional set of 6-spoke wheels.
