Watch A Second-Gen Audi R8 Meet Its Doom At The Nurburgring

A weekend of touristenfahrten at the Nordschleife can't possibly pass without incident, and sure enough, a nearly new R8 was filmed having an intimate encounter with some Armco last Saturday

Skip to about 4min 45sec for the R8 carnage

If this poor R8 can be repaired economically, it’s going to need a hell of a lot of work. The front end has been completely demolished, it’s had a full complement of airbag detonations, and that front right wheel doesn’t look like it had a particularly nice time while the car was loaded onto the recovery vehicle. And to add insult to injury, that Armco looks pretty gouged too, which will result in another hefty bill. Ouch.

whoever towed the car also didn’t know what they were doing. you can’t just drag an AWD car with 1 axle stationary and the other rolling, even if it’s just up onto the truck
