Audi R8 GT, #217 of 333 examples produced

The 2012 Audi R8 GT was the pinnacle of Audi's first-generation R8 lineup—a lighter, sharper, and more exclusive version of the already iconic supercar. Limited to just 333 units worldwide (with only 90 for the U.S.), the R8 GT took the standard 5.2-liter V10 and pushed it to 560 horsepower, paired with weight reductions of nearly 220 pounds through the use of carbon fiber panels and lighter materials throughout.

Designed as a road-legal track machine, the R8 GT showcased Audi's motorsport engineering with a rear-biased quattro system, a fixed carbon-fiber rear wing, and aggressive aerodynamic upgrades that improved downforce and handling. Combining everyday drivability with raw performance and exclusivity, the 2012 R8 GT remains one of the most collectible modern Audis ever produced.

Offered for sale is our amazing 2012 Audi R8 GT which is #217 of 333 examples produced, only 90 of which were designated for the US. The car is powered by a 5.2-liter V10 that drives all four wheels through a six-speed R-Tronic automated transaxle and is finished in Phantom Black Pearl over black leather upholstery.

Equipment includes the Enhanced R8 GT Leather Package, 19 inch multi-spoke wheels, carbon-ceramic brakes, a fixed carbon-fiber rear wing, matte carbon-fiber interior trim, LED headlights, heated seats, automatic climate control, the Audi Navigation System Plus, and a Bang & Olufsen sound system. This R8 GT has 17k miles.

The GT featured a lighter windshield when compared with the standard R8 as well as a carbon-fiber front splitter, rear diffuser, fixed rear wing, dive planes, and mirror caps. This example is finished in Phantom Black Pearl with carbon-fiber Sigma side blades. Additional equipment includes LED headlights and taillights, tinted windows, and dual integrated exhaust outlets.

The wheels are wrapped in 235/35 front and 305/30 rear Bridgestone Potenza tires. The GT came with a manually-adjustable coilover suspension in place of the magnetorheological dampers offered on the standard R8. Braking is handled by carbon-ceramic discs paired with red-finish 8 front and 4 rear piston calipers. The cabin features heated power-adjustable seats trimmed in black leather with Crimson Red stitching, and matching upholstery extends to the dashboard, instrument hood, and door panels.

Additional appointments include matte carbon-fiber trim, R8 GT-branded floor mats, automatic climate control, cruise control, the Audi Navigation System Plus, a Bang & Olufsen sound system, and a six-CD changer. The 5.2-liter FSI V10 features dry-sump lubrication and was factory rated at 560 horsepower and 398 pound feet of torque in GT specification. Power is sent to all four wheels through a six-speed R-tronic automated transaxle and Quattro all-wheel drive.
