ABT Sportsline reveals an Audi R8 art car

ABT Sportsline has unveiled a beautiful piece of automotive art based on the Audi A8 coupe, which it is going to exhibit at the Wörthersee Classics Festival coming up in June 2018.

The entire car surface is occupied by a drawing by Timo Wuerz, a German caricature and comic artist who had previously painted Lamborghini, Daimler, Volkswagen and Suzuki vehicles in a similar way. The drawing was committed to vinyl film by SIGnal Design. A female image is prevalent in the graphics, and there is an alluring combination of white circle and pink diamond patterns.

The Audi R8 supercar normally ships with a 5.2-liter V10 engine capable of up to 610 hp (455 kW) and accelerates 0-100 km/h (62 mph) in just barely above three seconds.

The technical specifications of the art coupe aren’t being discussed at the moment, but it would be reasonable to expect the ABT Sportsline team to improve its engine performance and to reduce its weight somewhat.
