Mansory has released new photos of their tuning package for the Audi R8 V10 Spyder. On the styling front, the model has an aggressive body kit with a
front spoiler, revised side skirts and a prominent rear wing.
There's
also carbon fiber accents and 20-inch alloy wheels. Inside, the cabin can be ordered with everything from personalised
floor mats to custom leather seats. If you're not ready to pony up the
big bucks, you can settle for aluminium pedals and illuminated sill
plates. For added performance, the 5.2-liter V10 engine is equipped with a
high-flow air filter and a sport exhaust system. Thanks to these tweaks,
the engine develops 552 PS (406 kW / 544 hp) and 550 Nm (406 lb-ft) of
torque - an increase of 27 PS (20 kW / 27 hp) and 20 Nm (15 lb-ft).
Press release:
The MANSORY refining programme for the Audi R8 Spyder
Refining sports cars is more than just a business for MANSORY. Love
for detail, the particular and the unique is an incentive for
exceptional reconstructions. The company's latest stroke of genius
impressively proves that once again. The MANSORY interpretation of the
Audi R8 Spyder with its exclusive and extensive refining programme does
not let just the hearts of convertible fans beat faster.
In particular, the car body kit clearly demonstrates that the desire
for visual refinement is the focus at MANSORY. Apart from a multitude of
new design elements made of carbon such as the new front grill and the
lamella bonnets, specific interventions on front, side and rear ensure
extra aerodynamics. The front spoiler attachment therefore reduces the
buoyancy of the Spyder, which decisively improves handling and agility.
Furthermore, the side skirts calm the air flow between both axes. A rear
spoiler also provides more contact pressure. The MANSORY technicians
could restrict themselves to a small wing profile from which the car
body design has significantly benefited. Since the combination with a
new rear apron and the perfectly integrated rear diffuser made a
sufficient grip available. The MANSORY aerodynamics kit displays its
strengths on main roads with curvy sections and generates pure driving
pleasure.
Extra agility and handling create room for more power. For the V10
5.2 FSI-engine MANSORY brings its Know-How into play. By installing a
sport air filter and a sport exhaust system, an improvement of
performance results in 552 HP / 406 kW with 800 rpm and an increased
torque of 550 Nm with 6500 rpm
An additional technical highlight in the refining programme offered
is the distinctive MANSORY alloy wheel. It is particularly light due to
the production in forging technology. The unsprung masses are thereby
reduced, which improves noticeably both handling and acceleration as
well as braking response. The recommended wheel/tyre combination has the
size 8.5Jx20 inches with tyre dimensions 245/30ZR20 at the front. At
the rear, 11.0Jx20 sized rims with tyre size 305/25ZR20 are used. The
wheel/tyre combination is properly set into the scene by suspension
springs for the lower suspension setting of the sports car.
MANSORY customers also get offered something in the interior as well.
As a complement to the existing interior design offered by our
manufacturer, MANSORY offers a extensive programme. That ranges from
personalised doormats to perfectly worked leather upholstery with
MANSORY couture and carbon applications. Illuminated door entry strips
and pedals and footrests made of aluminium are also in the extensive
list of possible interior refinement.
MANSORY Design & Holding GmbH offers only its in-house developed
tuning accessories. The company does not offer its own make as
"complete" vehicle, neither does the company deal with such type of
vehicles.
