First U.S.-Bound Audi R8 5.2 FSI V10 To Be Auctioned in Boca Raton

2009AudiR8V10.jpg Although we've reported that the 2010 Audi R8 5.2 FSI V10 is not yet confirmed for U.S. sale , and noted in our V10 R8 first drive that U.S. sales wouldn't begin until the 2010 calendar year at the earliest, it seems that's not entirely true.

An Audi R8 5.2 FSI V10 is the top car on the auction block at the 2009 Boca Raton Concours d' Elegance. Attend the black-tie-optional, $500-a-plate gala on the evening of February 21 and you, too, can bid on Audi's supercar.

A 2010 Ferrari California will also be up for auction, but next to the Audi, it seems almost second-tier. How often does that happen to a car with a prancing horse badge? Not very, we'd guess.

Yeah, but how many prancing horses have fake exhausts?

Ferrari California following Lexus IS? Somethings wrong with that picture.

Am betting $1 mil or close will be final price for the Audi.
