R8 + Rain...

This is the first R8 that bites the dust by its owner, the other few that burnt down few months ago were test cars.
This is 1 of only 5 R8s delivered to Russia, it was sold about 2 months ago right after the unveiling. I think its the same one that was unveiled, or at least same color combo.
Still no details on the crash. Not sure if these pics were shot by the owner, but it looks fresh, still no cops.

It shouldn't matter how much money you have to buy a car like that, they should still make sure you can drive the thing before selling it to you!

I bet one of the last thing the driver said before that was something along the lines of:
"it's 4wd, nothing's going to happen"

looks like a photographer, juding by the angle and style of photos. So I'll assume someone passing by. Normal people don't shoot that last pic. Where are the cops?

That sucks. I saw one of those the other day on the way to work. The LEDs under the headlights are an odd but eye catching feature.

+1. Too bad for that guy, though. Scene has "I'm stupid and tried to show off" written all over it.

Do you think they'll cover that under a factory recall?

Not gonna make any assumptions about the wreck, its a shame, but as there is no story no one knows why he wrecked.

:lol: "dreaded reefer madness"... sounds like a cbs news investigation from the 70s
Do any other Audis have the led strip under the headlights? I definitely saw the led strip on a car going the opposite direction on the higway last week and it caught my eye but I couldn't whip my head around to look at the car while cruising along at 80 mph. I'm actually mad cause I wanted to add an led strip in the space underneath my headlights but never had the money or time to make it happen. Now I got the money but if I do it I'll look like some R8 wannabe
