Audi R8 5.2 V10 PLUS QUATTRO Coupe - Pricing / negotiating

[Vroom2]

Hi Folks,

There seems to be an endless (and increasing) supply of R8 V10+ cars available with asking price circa £80,000 retail. How much is it realistic to expect off this asking price from a dealer?

Maybe not fair to compare, but I've been reliably informed the actual dealer selling prices for Ferrari F355 and F430 is typically circa £10,000 below asking prices. Asking prices have not budged since Covid 19 as dealers try in vain to control the market.

Any insight, experience or thoughts much appreciated.

I don't think you've been as reliably informed as you think (unless you're talking about SOR / non-official Ferrari dealers - and even then I'd be amazed if that was true).

Unequivocal, first hand, albeit from non-official Ferrari dealer in South East.

I purchased a 2017 R8+ back in May for £84,000, with only 9k on the clock, still under main dealer warranty, and in a rare colour with every option ticked. I personally think that was great value. I'm sure if they have had the car a few months you will be able to get a few off, I couldn't really negotiated on mine as found out they was getting it before he had even taken it into stock.

I agree they look a tremendous proposition. Have you enjoyed your ownership? What are the "must have" resale options to have? Are there any colours to avoid for resale?
