Local facebook group. cars in Victoria.

I’m Selling my 2008 Audi R8 Cheap because I bought a newer standard trans model and I don’t have the parking at my condo for it.

169,xxx
Rebuild status
Some cosmetics needed!
Imported to BC from Texas
Cheapest R8 around!
No luxury tax
Private sale

$42,000
I’ll also entertain trades for another car and cash. I’m hoping for more of a daily driver type car. If you want to finance part of the $ I can set that up too with my line of work.

Private msg if interested.

170k rebuilt status R8. Great deal indeed

A great deal of shame when people find out its 170k and rebuilt

The mileage is 170k, and the sell price is $42,000.
That's not a bad deal at all for an R8 considering clean 08' go for mid to high $90's. Baller on a budget right there.

^This one is for sale in Quebec. Rebuilt status with 68,000km.
$68,900

What're maintenance costs going to be like on a 170k Audi though?

probably a lot.. but if you compare to the one hypa posted, you're saving around 30k.
Would you spend $30k over the course of 100k kms in an R8? not sure.. could be close

The price of the Audi R8 has been reduced to $38500. Owner says it just was fully serviced and inspected at Audi.

Anyone have the link to the R8?

It's on a private facebook group called Vancouver Audi Club "ISLAND" Group

Not my car but I could maybe get the guys contact info. sent me a PM if you want it.

Probably not too bad, considering the car is still a VW.
There are a lot of shared parts in the first gen R8. Some from pedestrian VW models, others come from the Lamborghini bin. While the transaxle is a shared component as seen below.

Gen1 R8.

Thanks, will PM you!

Just got an email back from the R8 guy. Someone has already put down a deposit.

Any issues with it?

sure you could be buying a ticking timebomb because of rebuilt status and 170k kms... but for $38.5K? that is a good deal for exoticish car!

As long as the car was mechanically sound someone got a sore dick deal and a youtube channel idea. "I bought the cheapest R8 in North America"

besides oil pan having a seep its the cleanest mechanically SiR you can get.


its very stock.


suspension has <100k km on it. drives great. everything works.

Interesting to watch SiR prices call down. Plenty of choices and no buyers.

getting close to bottom of the curve for those SIR's


gonna go up from here on.

1988 Toyota Tercel - didn’t know these came as 5-door hatchbacks, most I’d seen were coupes or 3-doors.

I've always loved these cars. And at 104k kms, it's a great deal.

Why buy a RHD car that’s available in LHD here though

hmm someone swapped the seats to lancer evo 6 seats....

The EVO seem to be such a rare car in Canada. Not that I have really looked, as I was a Subaru guy. But I was always amazed that the EVOs could make so much power so easily, compared to the STi.

Sad about the rhd though. I didn't notice that, as I was searching craigslist for a 1965 Impala. I still don't know how the EVO came up in my search :chairdance:

I might be wrong, but I think the Evo X was the first one you could buy in Canada (even then I imported mine from the US)

Because the entry into a rhd version is sometimes much cheaper
