Lady Gaga's Audi R8

What do you think Lady Gaga will drive? What kind of cars that Lady Gaga will own? This week, the hottest topic in Beverly Hills is nothing but Lady Gaga’s Audi R8 GT. Gaga isn’t caught in a bad romance but caught in an Audi R8. The pop star might have equivocal taste in fashion but she seems to have good taste in cars by choosing one of the 333 Audi R8 GTs that Audi ever produced. Among the 333 units, there are only 90 units made available in the US.

The limited production Audi R8 GT is powered by a 5.2-liter V8 engine that pumps 560 bhp. While the curb weight is 100 kg (220 lb) lighter, this power is capable of bringing the car from standstill to 100 km/h in 3.6 seconds and has a top speed of 320 km/h (199 mph). The R8 GT features several noticeable changes compared to the ordinary R8 V10, these being red brake caliper covers at four wheels, bespoke wheels with carbon fiber sideblades, red GT badge, a fixed rear spoiler, fins on the front bumper trimmed in matt carbon fiber, and two larger round exhausts. If you spotted an R8 with these features, that’s probably Gaga’s new ride.

According to pictures flying around the internet, Gaga is driving a regular Audi R8 V10 but not the GT. Note that the badge is “V10” instead of the red GT and the brake caliper isn’t in red. Is it possible that she is test driving the regular R8 and placed an order for the GT?

As for interior, there are two bucket seats trimmed in Alcantara. Steering wheel, gear lever, and gauges are designed with the racing circuit in mind. We are not sure whether Gaga prefer the bucket seats. In the US, the car price for the R8 GT is starting from $196,800 but that’s definitely not a problem for one of the top-earners in music world.

Do we love Gaga’s new car? Yes we do!
