Popular Post teacherclaire Posted January 29, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 29, 2021 (edited) Yesterday I heard a fantastic roaring sound and saw an Audi. After some research, I figured out what kind of Audi it was and that in deepest Isaan? If you want to buy one here, it's only a 3,799,800 baht down payment, and monthly rates of 261, 637 baht. Of course affordable to all TVF members. https://th.priceprice.com/Audi-R8-7949/#:~:text=Audi R8 รุ่นล่าสุด,แรกที่เอาชนะ Porche 997 Some amazing data: The ten-cylinder engine draws from 5,204 cm3 (0.184 cu ft) of displacement. Its specific output in the top-of-the-line version is 119.1 metric horsepower per liter. Each unit of metric horsepower has to move a weight of only 2.57 kilograms (5.7 lb) because the curb weight of the Audi R8 Coupé V10 performance quattro is just 1,595 kilograms (3,516.4 lb). The Spyder V10 performance quattro weighs 1,695 kilograms (3,736.8 lb) empty and 1,587 kilograms (3,498.7 lb) dry. This results in explosive performance figures: The fastest volume-production Audi of all time catapults itself from 0 to 100 km/h (62.1 mph) in 3.1 seconds, and from 0 to 200 km/h (124.3 mph) in 9.8 seconds. Its top speed is 331 km/h (205.7 mph). The R8 Coupé V10 quattro accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h (62.1 mph) in 3.4 seconds and keeps achieves a top speed of 324 km/h (201.3 mph). The values for the Spyder are 3.2 and 3.5 seconds, respectively, and 329/322 km/h (204.4/200.1 mph). Now get back to what you were doing before and keep on dreaming. ???? P.S.

Great! I hope a brain is included in this offer. May I remind you that it wasn't mine? That's not a car for Thailand, such cars want a German Autobahn without limits. 300 km/h + and the tunnel view must be awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob12345 Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 A classmate of mine had one of those, the first one in Thailand with matt paint if i remember correctly. He didn't use it often, just as his other supercars, as going through Bangkok was quite expensive (they cost a lot in gasoline standing in a traffic jam). 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

holy cow cm Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 (edited) As long as the plates are sprayed white like I see in CM then run as fast till your heart desires. No one will know it's you. Actually I still don't see the purpose of a semi racecar here as in the end this fallacy doesn't make my special tool any longer or harder. But I do love Audi.

billd766 Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 The cost in Thailand for the Audi R8 is 18,999,000 thb. The price in the EU for the same car is 234,720 Euros, or in Thai Baht 642,875 at an exchange rate of 27,5344. More than 3 times the price, but that includes import taxes plus VAT on the total bill. It does NOT include the contents of any brown envelopes used. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elgenon Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 I always thought it better looking than Ferrari or Lambo. But that was when the grill was oval, not angular. Yes, the sound is great. I'm in favor of car porn. Others may like outrageous houses or boats. Others may just prefer to stay home in a studio apartment and watch TV. Different strokes for different blokes. I say go for it. What do you care what others think? People who criticize what others do (as long as it doesn't hurt anyone else) should stick to their own knitting, as the saying goes. Or <deleted> off as others would say. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I totally agree with your sentiment "elgenon", but I think with a car that fast you are very likely to hurt others and maybe even yourelf...... Particularly in the wallet! .....Or maybe Worse????? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To wit - some people shuffle by on $1 million a month, some have to do with THB 1 million a month - some people buy Audi's, some have to do with Toyota's. See - you can learn something on TVF even on an ordinary Sunday..............lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The faxct is thewta no mtahi in tyhis country is taruined adeq Sorry, my finger ran away with itself. Nobody said anything about being rich, that is irrelevant . No Thais are trained to ride a bike, let alone drive a high powered car. The result is often a massive crash and death.
