2017 Audi R8 V10 Plus Goes for a Road Test, Sounds Magnificent

I am not particularly involved with Audi products, but there are a few that I am really crazy about. I like having an RS6 or an RS7 in its latest iteration, but I could easily go for the company`s most hardcore 2017 R8 V10 Plus it has ever created.

It is aggressive, fast and incredibly powerful and the video provided by Audi geek and YouTube user SaabKyle is showcasing us another road test that the model was subjected to, so we won`t spoil the fun and let you enjoy the show!
