Recent Changes
- The 2009 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance played host to the unveiling of the droptop version of the C8 Aileron. The C8 Aileron Spyder features a frameless windshield (similar to its C8 predecessor), a CNC-machined aluminum luggage rack located above the engine cover and a traditional single-latch electronic/hydraulically deployed soft-top (available in eight colors) with glass rear window. Underneath, both the exposed luggage rack and the engine bonnet is an Audi-sourced 400+ hp 4.2-liter V8 attached to a choice of either a six-speed manual or automatic gearbox (with paddle shifters). Stopping the car are massive AP brakes peering behind 19-inch Aeroblade wheels. Also available is an ultra-high-end stereo/infotainment system from Kharma. [1]
