Default Audi R8 photoshooting

At the Zürich Carshow, I saw the car for the first time in metal - and I like the R8

Of course I had to do a photoshooting, quite special light conditions, on one side illuminated by a white Audi-wall, the rest of the building was darker. Some of the light reflections turned out cool.









Enjoy the pics!

The front looks nice and agressive. I don't like the bits on the side that are coloured differently... The rear looks crap IMO. Maybe it's one of those cars that looks better in the flesh.

But I think the photos look nice.

Haha, I was about to say the exact same thing. . . "The Lighting sucks!"

J/king Stmoritzer. . . thanks for the pictures.

So does it really look better in person? Because this car doesn't seem very photogenic from all the pictures I have seen.

EDIT: Crap. . . posted too late .

Actually - the rear is my favourite part of the car...

I don't like the car either... but I guess I'll change my mind when I see on in the metal

Anyway - nice pics stmoritzer... even despite the shite light conditions!

BTW - where are the people?
You know, when hamlet and I arrive to take pics, the security clears the area for us
no,
the trick is to go very late, just around closing time and the cars are there just for you 8)

actually, on one picture, there is a face of a nice girl

Some nice shots although, as others, I don't really like this car :bah:

I guess seeing it on the road will still be interesting

Awesome set of R8's there 8) . Look really cool on the road and are obviously extremely fast. There was meant to be a dealer here in dundee who was meant to have 2 of them this year but obviously they havent arrived in the UK yet my friend spoke to a person at audi and they said they had sold 3 or 4 to the UK :shock: . Anyway thanks for sharing
