Auto loans: the 2011 Audi R8
We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2011 Audi R8 for sale by us right now. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. This page puts the 2011 Audi R8 in plain words for buyers: what it uses, what to check, and how to try one first.
Before you sign for the R8
Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Owners filed 1 complaints with NHTSA, most often about suspension; have those parts checked. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.
Engine and fuel
It runs the 4.2L 8-cylinder, with all-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. With all-wheel drive, it pulls away more surely on slippery roads, though it does not stop any shorter.
For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 44 litres, from its 14.8 L/100 km rating. At our price setting, 1,000 km costs about $259. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$5,150 a year for 15,000 miles.
How big it is
Low and compact, it is a car for the drive more than the cargo.
Who rents the R8
It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits a summer weekend or a special occasion more than a move.
Try before you buy
Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. Drive the R8 on your commute before you commit to it.
The cost of driving it
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
Narrowing it down
Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.
Ready when you are
Send a request to rent the model first, or ask us what we can do.
Rent it for a week before you buy
