As if Audi’s new R8 wasn’t fast enough (are they ever?!) or sexy enough, there’s a German tuner in town who just turned the volume knob to 11. Roland Meyer’s MTM tuning firm has been in the business of turning out stunning Audi’s for over 20 years. Still, the company’s newest offspring is in another league all together.

Called simply the Audi R8 MTM, this beast is a fitting tribute to classic German tuning. Very subtle, very refined, the R8 MTM only gives slight hints at whats under the glass-framed hood. You see that’s cause this beast is blown.

The stock R8’s V8 engine is already a work of art. Making 420hp out of 4.2 liters is an amazing feat for a naturaly aspirated engine, nevermind one with such muscle car grunt. That equates to 100hp per liter out of a V8! MTM though, takes it to a whole new level by bolting on a supercharger setup that boosts (pun intended) power output to an astonishing 552hp and 428 ft/lbs of torque.

All that oomph delivers a 3.9 second 0-60 time and a top speed of 197mph. Quite impressive indeed giving the fact that the stock R8 only manages a sissy 195mph…

But alas the old “pay to play” saying holds firmly true here. MTM is gonna pull $26,000 out of your wallet and that’s just for the engine upgrade. The full shabang will run you closer to $55,000 and add on some sweet wheels and some carbon accents all over the exterior.

All in all, the new Audi R8 MTM will get you salivating at the though of what it can do. With this newest creation, the boys at MTM have really outdone themselves.
