This episode of Head 2 Head sees Motor Trend’s Jonny Lieberman travel to the American Southwest in Utah armed with the Audi R8 Spyder and Porsche’s 911 Cabriolet.
The exact models being compared are the Carrera S, which develops 294 kW (400 hp) and 440 Nm of torque from its 3.8-litre straight-six and the 4.2-litre V8-engined R8, with 316 kW (430 hp) and 430 Nm at its disposal.
Will the R8’s extra horsepower and quattro system be enough to counter the 911’s lower weight and rear-wheel drive sports car advantage?
