Despite the fact the Audi R8 is almost fifteen years old at this point, it remains one of our favorite modern supercars because of its aggressive styling and even more aggressive performance. Earlier this year, Audi announced that the new 2021 R8 would be available would be available with a rear-wheel drive version in both the coupe and spyder options. Audi is taking the 2021 celebration even further with the new, limited edition 2021 Audi R8 Panther Edition. This version of the rear-wheel drive model retains the same naturally-aspirated V10 that produces 532 horsepower, 398 lb-ft of torque and 0-60mph time of 3.6 seconds you’ll find on the other 2021s, but it’s completely refinished inside and out with the Panther detailing previously available on the RS5. This includes the stealthy Panther Black crystal effect paint on the exterior and in the engine compartment, along with 20″ matte black wheels with red trim wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S tires. The red contrast continues inside with crimson red leather wrapped seats and contrasting stitching. The 2021 Audi R8 Panther Edition is limited to just 30 units and will arrive in the US later this month.
