ABT takes the Audi R8 GT and drops the top and bumps the power to 620HP for the ABT R8 GT S.  ABT also added CR Superlight wheels, as well a full aerodynamic body kit that includes an adjustable rear wing. The interior was covered with premium leather red carbon to match it's exterior color scheme.

When designing the car, the Motorsport Department of ABT Sportsline paid attention to weight reductions and the perfect distribution of weight. With its dynamic carbon inlays at the side and on the covers of engine and convertible-top the cabrio signalises that it is one of the fastest around.

Not quite sure how I feel about this one...
 
I'd imagine it probably goes like hell's bells and corners as if being chased by Lucifer, but it sure looks like it will age rather quickly, design-wise. And how many will ABT produce, like 5 of them...ever?

I just don't get the exclusivity of one-upping someone you'll probably never meet; it's not as if there's hundreds of thousands of Audi R8s on the street every day.
 
Like pretty much every tuner car, overdone and ridiculous. Do not want.
 
Gaudy. But that won`t stop russian millionaires and sheiks from buying it.
