The V10 experience: open-top, no turbos.
The Audi R8 Spyder V10 isn't a sports car like any other, it's the last of its kind. While the whole industry moves to turbos and electric, a 5.2-liter naturally aspirated V10 breathes free behind your head: 570 hp and 550 Nm that only unleash their full fire at 8,000 rpm. A sound no turbo and no electric motor on Earth can recreate.
Technically, the R8 shares its heart with the Lamborghini Huracán: the same legendary ten-cylinder, here tamed by permanent quattro all-wheel drive and a 7-speed S tronic gearbox. 0 to 100 km/h in 3.5 seconds, on to 327 km/h: all of it open, with the wind above you. The fabric roof opens in just 20 seconds, even on the move up to 50 km/h.
Inside, you sit low in a racing-style cockpit: the compact R8 steering wheel with its red start button and drive-select dial, the fully digital Virtual Cockpit right in front of you, everything aimed at the driver. No screen clutter, no gimmicks, just you, the V10 and the road.
At Performance Rentals the R8 Spyder is the absolute highlight of the fleet: the car for that one unforgettable day. You pick it up in Weiden, Bavaria, and the best roads of the Oberpfalz and Franconia are right there: the sweeping backroads toward Bayreuth, the country roads toward Regensburg, the sunset with the roof down. A car you don't rent because you need a car, but because you never want to forget a moment.

The machine in detail.
From €449/day. All-in.
All prices include full comprehensive insurance (Vollkasko). Extra kilometers €3.50/km. Deposit €1,500.
A V10 and no speed limit.
There's exactly one country on Earth where you can legally run a 570-hp V10 flat out: Germany. Large stretches of the Autobahn have no posted speed limit: only a recommended 130 km/h, and Weiden sits right in Autobahn country. The A93 runs past the door toward Bayreuth and Hof, the A6 heads toward Nuremberg, and both feed the famous A9 Munich–Berlin corridor. You're on open road within minutes of pickup, roof down, ten cylinders singing to 8,000 rpm.
Full insurance is included and driving fast on derestricted sections is completely legal, you drive by the posted signs, we handle the paperwork. Read how to do it right in our Autobahn experience guide.
US military? Welcome.
Stationed at Grafenwöhr or Vilseck? Pickup in Weiden is a short drive from both, and the R8 Spyder is the bucket-list car before you PCS out. SOFA status is welcome and your US license works. Full insurance (Vollkasko) is always included, no counter upsells.
Everything you need to know, documents, SOFA, deposits, is on our car rental for US military in Germany page.
From idea to ignition.
Renting the R8: your questions.
How much does it cost to rent an Audi R8 in Germany?
Our Audi R8 Spyder V10 starts at €449 per day with 150 km included and full comprehensive insurance (Vollkasko) already in the price. The weekend special (Friday to Sunday) is €999 with 350 km included. Extra kilometers are €3.50/km. Week and event rates are available on request.
Is insurance included in the R8 rental price?
Yes. Full comprehensive insurance (Vollkasko) is always included in the daily rate, never an upsell and no surprise add-ons at pickup.
How much is the deposit for the Audi R8?
The security deposit for the R8 Spyder is €1,500.
Can I rent the R8 with a US driver's license?
Yes. A valid US driver's license is accepted. SOFA-status soldiers and US civilians are both welcome.
Is this really a naturally aspirated V10?
Yes, the R8 Spyder runs the 5.2-liter FSI V10 naturally aspirated engine with 570 hp and 550 Nm, the same legendary ten-cylinder found in the Lamborghini Huracán, paired with quattro all-wheel drive and a 7-speed S tronic gearbox. No turbos, full power at 8,000 rpm.
Can I drive the R8 on the Autobahn with no speed limit?
Yes, that's the whole point. On derestricted stretches of the German Autobahn there is no posted speed limit, and the R8 Spyder runs to 327 km/h with the top down. Pickup in Weiden puts you minutes from fast Autobahn stretches like the A93 and A6. Full insurance is included and driving fast on derestricted sections is completely legal. See our Autobahn experience guide.
Where do I pick up the Audi R8?
Pickup is in Weiden in der Oberpfalz, northern Bavaria, a short drive from Grafenwöhr and Vilseck and about two hours north of Munich. We can also deliver to other towns for a surcharge by arrangement, just message us on WhatsApp.
