antp ◊ 2008-05-06 15:25	I suppose that the bright green color allows to erase it digitally later.

That's the reason. If you see three photos "What we can see in rough scene", that scene (or similar) we can see it at the cinema and after crash R8 against robot, this robot falls over the bus; but in the six photos "And real scene behind cameras", the bright green color is a ramp in the same place of the robot, Audi R8 goes to this ramp and crashes and simultaneously the bus stars to crash too (inside machine, I suppose).

Ingo ◊ 2008-05-08 21:23	Wasserspeier wrote What is the price of such a car? I'm quite sure, that Audi has given them for free as product placement.
sixcyl ◊ 2008-05-08 22:30	Never mind because it's an ugly Audi , up to me
audicrazy ◊ 2008-05-08 23:27	Ingo, the price is probaby $220,000, i think
G-MANN ◊ 2008-05-12 14:05	Even if the film studio had to pay for the ones they wrecked, they could still afford it, this film has a budget of about $180 million, and these R8s are still being made (it's early on in their production run). -- Last edit: 2008-05-12 14:18:17

jettalover ◊ 2008-06-04 21:36	I believe R8s start at $110,000. In my humble opionion, the R8 is beautiful.
fallout2b ◊ 2008-08-13 21:13	movie star wrote Thanks, at least somebody is agreeing with me I think this Audi is mighty ugly it's only beaten by the useless Q7 How about you don't uselessly say stupid things? Please explain why the R8 has won every major car award if it's so "mighty ugly". You're just jealous and you have nothing better to say so you decide to leave stupid comments like this. And if you don't like the car in the first place why did you even bother commenting. Do you think we all want to hear your stupid opinions about one of the best cars built this century?

93montero ◊ 2008-09-22 14:53	I'm going to have to agree with the anti-R8 opinions here. I don't like the way this car looks whatsoever and I agree that it does still look better than the Q7. I just basically found this movie to not be that memorable at all. People LOVE this movie and it makes no sense why. X2 is infinitely better than this with so many more characters and personalities, better action (in my opinion), and no boring scenes where it's just guys shooting at his armor plate. If you wanted to see that watch the opening scene of Lethal Weapon 4 AND that guy used a flamethrower just like good old Iron Man. Back to the R8, I dislike it. He should have been driving the Cobra around . Before he fell on it that is.

walter ◊ 2008-10-11 20:49	Ladies and Gentlemen... The main star of the movie
CarChasesFanatic ◊ 2008-10-11 21:12	I'm not sure that it deserves as many as four stars
walter ◊ 2008-10-11 21:28	I know it isn't used so much, but, as said, it's the main star of the movie, the symbol of Iron Man. So...
Ford-girl ◊ 2009-02-11 23:40	What's really crazy is Tony Stark's Audi R8 is $20,000 cheaper than The Transporter's Audi A8. I figured the R8 would be worth more. It looks like it, but I guess not. As far as I know, the Audi A8 is the most expensive Audi.
ShantJ ◊ 2009-04-30 21:10	The full name is: Audi R8 4.2 FSI quattro

Do you think we all want to hear your stupid opinions about one of the best cars built this century? Ok. 4 times stupid in a very short paragraph. Insulting me approximately 6 times. You are new here, kid, you should not take your mouth too full. So listen. I am NOT stupid. My opionion is NOT stupid, it is just an opinion, and you may disagree with it. Why should I be jealous of a car, of an object which does not even live? You must be kidding me I do indeed have better things to say but these would be wasted if I told you them since you don't seem to appreciate anything not being similar to your own opinion. Why do I bother commenting? Well, why do you bother saying 'stupid' up to 4 times??? Oh, again, my opinion ( you do call it opinions, but yes, since it is just one car, I only have ONE opinion on it, as you can see) and the design is always a question of taste. IS THIS ENOUGH TO BAN fallout2b? I would be glad to see him banned... we do not need Explorer4x4-clones

Do you think we all want to hear your stupid opinions about one of the best cars built this century? Before I forget: It has NOT won every major car award. It can easily win car awards which go about power and the like since it definitely is a fast and powerful car. Don't worry. You have possibly not heard about people yet who were banned from this site. You just set yourself on the list of the users who are the next to be banned. So enjoy your next log-in on the site, it will sure be your last one. You are clearly allowed to state whether you agree or disagree with others. You have no right to insult others (even if it was just some kind of 'childish joke'). You messed with the wrong person, kiddie. If you really want a fight, I will not be fighting it on your level, I will just have you banned.
movie star ◊ 2010-01-06 00:59	fallout2b, you are sooooo lucky that I usually do not bother looking after old comments I wrote. I know, you will try coming back when we banned you. People like you always do. Explorer4x4 tried it numerous times .... we always got him so yeah, you just caused yourself a super big load of trouble, boy. I do not know how old you are. I resepctively think you are not an adult, and, if at least, only 14 years of age. So you may be going through puberty. Right. Unfortunately this does not count as an apology for your rude, disrespectful behaviour, expressed with sentences which are filled with curse words. And even if you were the Pope himself, not even he is allowed to curse on this site. We have our standard rules. An important rule is: No swearing! Another one is: We treat each other with Respect! You broke both of these two rules. You broke even more than these two. Your problem is: You are not a qualified user. You are new. You are an Audi enthusiast (which made you seem sympathetic for Walter, but yeah, I do not think he likes people messing around on this site). Apart from offending me, you have just clearly exposed yourself as an ignorant person, too numb to stick to basic rules of respect and honor, and you are unfriendly, too, if not even hateful. You are not giving us a good image of Canadian people (but, with all due respect, you clearly are not a Canadian, you sure used this land only because you did not really want to say where you come from). People seem to think it is funny faking the land where you originate from. I do not think it is funny. I do not mind it as long as you do not purposely try to make people living in this land look bad, unfriendly, unfair and ignorant. But you just did that. Another point on the 'what caused fallout2b to be banned - list). I could go on like this for hours, ummm, pages. Good for you you did at least not yet post rassistic comments (although you get banned anyways, haha ) Think about this. Maybe come back with a new user name and a new attitude.
rjluna2 ◊ 2010-01-06 01:42	Relax movie star, fallout2b has not post any message for a year and half. fallout2b has only 4 posting on it...
Lateef ◊ 2010-01-06 08:25	movie star, I don't think fallout would really come back magically and read your "a bit" delayed comebacks. And why did you post four comments in a row for the same deal? Editing your comment 3-4 times is okay. Wanting him banned right now is like wanting to hang a guy that has been buried for several years. And I like the R8. It surely looks aggressive, but it's not ugly. I ought to add this car to my favourite-car-list. -- Last edit: 2010-01-06 08:25:47
movie star ◊ 2010-01-06 17:09	yes, I just don't like people like him. and I dont like those claiming to own cars of certain movies in order to gain attention.
mnstrmn1 ◊ 2011-09-05 18:10	Wasserspeier wrote What is the price of such a car? Its actually a 2008, the R8 wasnt released till then and a 2008 Audi R8 costs $98,000
andrepa ◊ 2012-05-16 01:27	the concept is not about to make a most expensive beauty! Back in 1934 Ferdinand Porsche invented the mid-engine sportster in attempt to achieve an technical advance, form folowesfunction The Auto-Union-Silberpfeile where developed to obtain best road behaviour under different conditions some of them look like driving backward, standing in pole position in front of all the green and red beauties -- Last edit: 2012-05-16 01:39:23
F355 ◊ 2016-05-18 04:21	the r8 is one of my favorite cars
Lateef ◊ 2016-05-18 14:25	^ Mine too

hachirokutrueno ◊ 2022-02-16 06:52	vilero wrote R8 after stunts job (at least 2 crashed) I saw a behind-the-scenes clip where they crashed the R8. Apparently the scene got cut from the film?
dogman15 ◊ 2023-12-14 04:24	Robert Downy Jr. was also in an Audi ad driving this car, as part of a promotional tie-in with Audi and this movie.
MOJO ◊ 2025-03-26 13:49	According to Edmunds, the 2008 model had a base MSRP of $109K
