People couldn't stop admiring and talking about the impressively fast Audi R8 even after its reveal!

The new concept from Audi had people talking at the Detroit Motor Show, as photographers and tyre kickers fought for any available space to gawk at the V12 diesel beast, even an hour after the reveal.

Sprinting from 0-100km/h at a tight 4.2 seconds the R8, being closely related to the R10, will surely be thrown into the supercar category in no time flat.

Many in the industry say that the noise these high end Audis are putting out at the moment is the best in the game, and the R8 doesn’t disappoint, using every one of its 500 horses to put the rest to shame.
