Audi has unleashed the sleek 2010 R8 model, with the option of either a V8 or a V10 engine.  These are two of the world’s biggest engines, and one exciting car.

This is truly an everyday driver, with a twist of luxury.  Reviews of the 2010 Audi R8 are mostly positive, outlining the following points:

•    Stellar handling capability
•    Stylish yet comfortable cockpit
•    All-wheel drive traction
•    Sleek lines and attention-grabbing aesthetics
•    Powerful 4.2-liter V8 or 5.2-liter V10 engine with a smooth ride
•    Standard iPod interface
•    Carbon fiber trim for door sills and body kit

It has been written that there is limited cargo space, and that the R tronic automated manual transmission is a touch on the clumsy side.  Overall, it is praised for its awesome combination of speed, style, and sporty comfort.  It is placed in a league with the likes of the Porsche 911 GT3 and the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1.

With the 2010 R8 model, the option of two separate engines is enticing.  The more powerful 5.2-liter V10 engine has an 8,700 rpm redline, and could be described as a slightly detuned version of the V10 that graces the Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4, which is impressive and has the potential to create rivalry with the Audi-owned Lamborghini.  

Overall, this is a luxury supercar that is among the most accommodating ever produced with superior performance capacity.  Just do not plan to haul your family and golf clubs around in it.
