This is the facelifted Audi R8 V10 performance Coupe quattro. You can tell it apart from the pre-facelift R8 by those three vents above the grille, as well as the shape of the air intakes below the headlights.

A family portrait. No, that’s not a dent in the side of the car; it’s a reflection of me taking the photo.

Looks are subjective and all that, but I’ve come to really like the shape of the second-generation R8.

There’s a new grille at the rear and a revised diffuser underneath it.

The heart of every R8 is its naturally aspirated V10 engine. But they won’t make them like this much longer.

The interior is much tamer than the closely related Lamborghini Huracán, but that’s not a bad thing. Our test car was fitted with 18-way adjustable sport seats, a $5,000 option that also includes a full leather interior and diamond stitching on the headliner.

The perforated leather steering wheel is a tactile joy to hold. Our R8 was also fitted with dynamic steering (a $1,400 option).
