Audi R8

The R8 debuted as Audi's first mass-market supercar in 2008. It channeled elements from the greats - mid-engine layout, gated manual transmission, high-revving and exotic power plants. It also injected the brand's own identity into the traditional supercar formula with Quattro AWD, a space-frame aluminum chassis, and those distinguished side-blades. Surprising to think their design is over 10-years old, as they still look modern out on the road today.
