XXX-Performance does the Audi R8 up

Care for some utter flashiness? Here’s an Audi R8 which was recently upgraded by the guys at XXX-Performance. I know it looks great, but wait till you see what’s under the bonnet.

This absolutely astonishing Audi R8 5.2 FSI Quattro has been garnished with a dazzling blue CHC Chrome wrapping. Under that wrap lies a wide body kit with brand new parts like rear diffuser, side blades, external mirrors and roof scoop. They can all be wrapped in carbon fiber.

In addition, the R8 has received LED taillights and headlamps and an H&R coilover kit which has further lowered the ride height; mind you, the driver is able to adjust it with the help of a button. As if this all wasn’t necessary, the R8 lies on a set of 20-inch Forgiato wheels wrapped in 325/25 Hankook tires on the rear axle and 235/50 at the front.

Thanks to some software tweaks and a carbon air-box, the XXX-Performance Audi R8 is able to develop a massive output of 650 HP (485 kW). It also sounds great thanks to a controllable valve system which regulates the noise.
