The Audi R8 Spyder is not just a convertible, it is a hauntingly beautiful fresh-air sports car class, a real dream car – especially after the team at ABT Sportsline worked their magic. The result is a vehicle that not only looks great but it performs well too. There are a bunch of new body parts starting with a front grille, front bumper, side skirts and rear bumper with exhaust covers and two-tone painted ABT BR rims are matched to the dynamic design of the car. As with the closed R8 versions from ABT, the team has designed the components to the optimal distribution of weight. Thus many of the ABT Sportsline components are made completely out of carbon fiber. The lightweight tuner parts for the Audi R8 add to the overall performance of this supercar. Who wants to reduce the weight of his Spyder even more consistently, should use the new wheel ABT CR Superlight, they also perfectly fits with the character of the ABT R8.
The ABT R8 Spyder’s V10 comes with 5.2 liter engine that is tuned to put out over 600 horsepower. The production version of this car makes 525 HP so the ABT Sportsline R8 got a bump in horsepower. The ABT R8 Spyder is now able to sprint from 0-60 MPH in just 3.8 seconds. This makes the Roadster a hurricane on the road. And the convertible only adds to the pleasure giving you an open air drive. ABT added upgraded suspension springs to provide better road holding. Plus the lower center of gravity gives the mid-engine sports a more aggressive look. The ABT Sportsline tuning package for the Audi R8 Spyder adds more horsepower and an even more extreme look to an already wicked sportscar.
